[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Happens in my Fairfax County, AAP obsessed community, too.

Mom cliques abound. My experience is that moms of only daughters are the most obnoxious social engineers of their own and their daughters' social standings, the biggest gossips, the biggest boozehounds themselves. They are using their girls' childhood to re-live or worse, foist their failed dreams of high school glory onto the daughters.[/b]

Just wait until high school when these same families begin to host parties for their precious students that would rival most fraternity parties! Plus, the moms will be there supervising. They'll gleefully tell you it's safer this way. Or, the parents sit together at the high school football games and get drunk. Hilarious! Look how cool they are!

Somehow, a son smooths down the edges of these high strung ladies. Been at this game since 2006 and one off to college. Yes, I have one son.

And, I have two friends. Both have sons. I'm ok w/ my two friends. It's brutal out there. Retiring early and escaping. Can't wait.[/quote]

I'm curious how your sons handle this social environment that these mothers created. Did they rise above it or stay occupied with other things? [/quote]

That PP nailed it. Thank you.  [/quote]
