[quote=Anonymous]OP, you obviously want a neighborhood filled with SAHMs. I can't really help you there since I don't live in such a place - which btw doesn't make me a Lexus craving ball of stress, nor make my kids neglected, despite what a few of you have posted. I love my job and I love my kids, and it works for us. But you might find more specific ideas if you post that as your query, rather than this sort of vague rant against the lack of neighborhood get-togethers. Alternatively you and a few of the other PPs who resent the "DC lifestyle" also might reconsider your attitude. Your rants against parents who work and kids who do activities or camps sound really judgmental, and that may be evident IRL as well as on the internet. My kids have friends with SAHMs and others with parents who work a million hours a week. They don't care and we don't care. I work and still organize occasional neighborhood activities, and they involve families who have all kinds of different work/life balances. You might actually have a better experience where you live now if you didn't come off as hostile toward anyone who chooses to organize their family life differently than you do. Good luck.[/quote]
