[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I made friends through volunteering at DCs' K-8. My DCs are 17 and 21 now, and I have two "for life" friends from that experience---we still socialize regularly as individuals, couples, and families. When my DCs were still in elementary school the wider circle was pretty big, but I've lost touch with a lot of those people outside of social media contact.[/quote] +1 volunteering and having the kids in the soccer team associated with the school helped me get to know other parents since that gives you more time to hang out and chat, ask people out for lunch afterwards, etc. My kids are in college now and a lot of those connections have faded but I still have a weekly coffee date with a small set of close friends who I all initially met on the soccer sidelines.
