[quote=Anonymous]I think the absence of home phones is a factor is fewer playdates. In the 80s/90s, from a young age I remember asking my mom if I could have a friend over, and if so, I would find the school directory and call. There wasn’t all this coordination (maybe the parents would get on phone to confirm). Now even my 6th-grader asks me to text friend’s parents, and it’s parents coordinating. I might not have # bc directories are behind some password on some random pta site. Not that we don’t make the effort… but it feels more complicated/parent driven.[/quote]
