[quote=Anonymous]If your neighbor with AAP kids really do want to keep their kids together with their siblings and neighborhood friends they have that option to keep their kids at the base school.  But they didn't so they might not feel as passionately about the subject as you do or as they lead you to believe.

As for the neighborhood kids remaining best buddies, that likely would not have occured even if the kids stayed at the same school.  It is very natural and normal for children's friendships to change around 2nd-6th grade.  At that age, they go from friendships that are mostly about proximity and accesibility (ie parent compatibility and friendship) to friendships that are more true and are based on shared interests and compatible personalities.

This happens with all kids and likely would have happened to your daughter and the neighborhood friends, whether or not anyone went to AAP. It is a natural part of tween friendship and helps them to form more mature relationships. You just associate it with AAP because it all happened about the same time.[/quote]
