[quote=Anonymous] I think it happens more often at religious schools. We're Jewish and I could not get away from Jewish schooling fast enough. The moms were very gossipy and surprisingly cliquish. I get the sense since we were all the same religion they had higher expectations than if we were a diverse group. We're supposed to automatically be family-socialize together, gossip together, do favors, etc. There was more of a social hierarchy too. I am a free thinker and don't do well with the hive mentality. Now our kids are at a very diverse school and it's such a better experience. I am friends with mothers of many faiths including my own. The moms are pleasant give or take some well-meaning mother who says something offensive. People are grateful if I do them a favor rather than expecting it. There are no birthday party politics so far. [/quote]
