[quote=Anonymous]Ours formed at our local pool club in middle school. Cool kids were all on the swim team together. There were a few social engineers that orchestrated things and most of the teammates who were social with laid back parents that let them spend all day at the pool got sucked in. Other teammates who were a bit more awkward or not around as much weren’t shunned but not quite part of the cool crowd. When they all went to middle school together the group expanded to include friends of friends, including non swim team kids. It was fascinating to watch it evolve from the world of simple ES friendships, especially as a parent of a boy who previously had no friend drama. I don’t really know the whole social scene at their very diverse public middle school but definitely sense for a certain demographic this group is at the center of things.[/quote]
