[quote=Anonymous]For my kids, the chance to see friends from school means a lot to them, during the school year but also especially over the summer. I do try hard to make it happen for them. I have two kids but they are different genders and several years apart in age (not intentional…had a life threatening illness in between) and they do play together but it’s a very different experience than playing with same age friends who have the same interests. We try to keep at least one day clear per week and as much of the weekend free as possible. They like their activities but hate being dragged around to the other one’s so we all agree there need to be limits. If we can get a better carpool going for sports they can do more. There’s no chance we will be able to carpool for dance and gymnastics, it just isn’t going to happen.

Anyway all that to say, even with making a big effort it’s still hard. We saw the people who were available this summer, not necessarily my kids best friends. To some extent that’s what will happen during the school year too.[/quote]
