[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here. I agree the moms who do this are just awful. But most of the rest of us just ignore them and roll our eyes. The moms of the popular kids find it tiring and sometimes offensive. My DS is popular, and he gets invited to a lot of play dates. It’s obvious which moms are social jockeying. I don’t mind my son befriending shy or awkward kids who need some help integrating socially. In fact, I actively encourage him to do that. I do mind moms who try to have their kids hang with him to improve their kids’ social standing. The worst was a mom who thought for whatever reason that I was beneath her, and spent the K year ignoring me and not returning greetings. Then my son turned out to be popular, and she was suddenly incredibly friendly. [/quote] I'm pretty sure those who refer to their own kids as the popular ones are a huge part of the problem.[/quote] Most definitely. [/quote]
