[quote=Anonymous]I'm in a similar position OP, and here are the reasons (at least I think)...

I'm an introvert and need some damn quiet in my house after a day of teaching, so I'm not one to try to plan weekly playdates.

I pick up late (after the sahm pick-up) and miss out on lots of the chatting that the moms do earlier in the year.  I think that is the one thing that has held things back...the clique has been formed and it's hard to break in...plus, I'd have to care.

I think some people are completely out of hand with the playdate thing....I remember having people over once in a while as a child, not every week.  Now, my son still has playdates, but I'd say maybe once or twice a month.  That doesn't count the multiple days that we play with the neighborhood kids outside.  But, I've lived in my neighborhood for 5 years and sometimes it just takes that long to build relationships.  K might be a better place for your child and you to build some of those longer lasting friendships.  [/quote]
