[quote=Anonymous]This was my experience all throughout my kids preschool years. I kept wondering why the other families seemed to be hanging out together, and when we were at school events I felt like a non entity. I also would try my best to be an interesting conversationalist, and to ask questions about the other person and follow up from prior conversations, but it didn’t seem to help at all. This continued for a few years after in early ES, and then covid hit and we found a couple of families to do activities with. And in the post covid years it has gotten a lot better. I have no idea why the initial slow start, but I’m a lot like you from what I’m reading. I’ve tried to develop adult activities too that don’t involve the kids or their friends’ families. That’s been semi successful and I can honestly say I now have school mom friends, family friends, and non-parent friends that are real friendships. [/quote]
