[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have younger kids and am not to the hanging out with friends stage yet but is this really an issue for people? This sort of thing happened alllllllll the time growing up. I grew up in a middle lower class town so a lot of friends parents worked nights or weekends and my mom stayed at home and she was super willing to make our house the hang out place (she also yes has a heart of gold and pulled out 6 course meals every night). I had friends over all the time whose parents picked them up after work. I’m scared about what this says about parenting these days if someone asking this one time is this big of an issue. [/quote]

In a few years you will laugh at yourself for writing this 😊[/quote]

DP here. My mom was a SAHM mom and did the same. Snow days, an hour or two gap after school, etc, for the "working" parents. It probably helped me make friends, that she was so flexible and willing to have people over.

My mom was a typical parent of Gen X however in that she paid us very little attention so it wasn't much work on her part....[/quote]
