[quote=Anonymous][twitter][quote=Anonymous]If you are an older mom of a young toddler (I am talking mid--late-40s, not mid-30s), were you able to find your group of friendly moms? How do you go about looking? We don't spend a ton of time in the park and when we do, ppl in the local park seem to still be distancing. Plus I am not a great outgoing conversationalist. I'd love to connect with some peers though. So where/how to look?[/quote]

I tried but failed and felt really bad at times with other new moms. I would think about what it is that you are looking for? The moms I met were generally involved with their own situation and child and there was no real connecting. We were all trying to do the best for our baby, when they got a little older I felt some moms were starting to reach out more maybe to find a buddy or some level of support? It's really the wild west out there. I remember attending a indoor playspace and I was cornered by one crazy non stop talking mom and then another time I sat a lone in a room filled with groups and pairs of mom/friends that attended together. I don't have the answers![/quote]
