[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a working mom, this is a good example of the kind of thing that makes me happy I do (even though it is a tough choice daily!). It is so "high school", even if you have no idea if you were really excluded or not. I feel for you, OP. Who knows what happened, but your feelings matter. Dwell on it for a bit, gain confidence from your supporters on DCUM, and move on, as other posters suggested. [/quote] Couldn't agree more! Another full-time working mom here. I got a taste of the cliqueish/high-school natures of moms, when I joined a mom's group during maternity leave. Nobody would give me the time of day.......I couldn't figure out why everyone was so rude/uninterested in getting to know me, as I consider myself a relatively nice/decent person. The kicker was when a large group of moms went out for lunch following the fifth group session......and nobody invited me. I sat in my car and cried like a baby. I quit the group and have not dealt with mommy politics since then. I have only one mom friend that I hang out with on a regular basis but that works for me right now. Yes, OP...moms can be mean/cliquish/etc. due to no fault of your own. Please try not to let it bring you down and surround yourself with other moms and activities that are all-inclusive.[/quote]
