[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not lame to make playdates for a 5th grader. All the arrangements I know of are made by parents. OP, it's just that you need to make them a little further in advance. Ask your child who she'd like to play with on the half days, and then see if you can arrange to have that girl over (if you have a [b]nanny or babysitter [/b]who will be there.) It's hard. I am a SAHM, so I can't complain. But I see that many of the working moms just somehow in the middle of their workday will send an email to arrange a playdate for their kid.[/quote] Unless quite wealthy, most working parents use SACC or equivalent. Some friends can be made there, but it's kind of a crapshoot. Very few girls in my DD grade are in SACC (all of her class except her have SAHM) but DS class has lots of kids in SACC, just different cohorts. Definitely see some SAHM picking up kids from SACC, but again the parents need to foster that mom to mom relationship. [/quote]
