[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a mom of a middle schooler and I am reading all this like some sort of fiction. My son never hangs out with anyone after school. He does have friends at school it seems - as he tells me about sitting with friends at lunch or choosing his cabin mates for a school trip. But nothing outside school. Maybe he is the one frozen out by mean moms… [/quote] It seems like at certain middle and elementary schools there is far less outside of school socialization between kids than at other schools. I've found this vibe at schools that are really intense in the academic aspect. It's not good or bad, but since parents have to chauffer everyone at those ages, maybe parents have decided that other things take priority. I remember when one of my kids attended a more laid back school with poorer academics, it seemed like all anyone ever did on the weekends was playdates and hang out (except the sports families).[/quote]
