[quote=Anonymous]IME the friendships premised in kids don't last. They either faded when our kids took different paths (different ECs, sometimes different schools, but even different friend groups within the same school), or they faded when the kids/school/parenting cease to be the main topic of conversation. My core group of close friends are all people I knew before I had kids. I have made lots of parents friends over the years but I've found these are kind of like work relationships -- they fade to acquaintance level once you are no longer "working" together. But I also think it's possible to make new friends at any age. I recently developed several friendships via a sports hobby I took up. No idea if those friendship will stand the test of time, but they are nice now and keeping me busy.[/quote]
