[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The great news is that you don't have to make mom friends. There's no reason to join these mom groups or make friends with the mothers of your children's friends. None.[/quote] I'm shy, but have benefitted so much from being friends or at least friendly aquaintances with my kids' friends' parents. Especially during the pandemic, those were the only families my kids really saw. Thankfully most of the parents are low key. Nobody really gossips, except in positive ways. Maybe my out-of-fashion clothes help filter out the competitive ones or those that mostly care about appearances :lol: [/quote] +1 Look for the kind, real, down to earth ones, OP - don't bother with the mean, persnickety, gossipy, "appearances before all else" ones who look like they are on the down low. It's not real life, and people worth hanging out with down have time for that, truly. [/quote]
