[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, I think it's more about long term relationships for MB's, especially in elite communities.  As a middle age nannny making friends becomes pretty complicated as their lives are pretty full, I'm guessing they are looking to form long-lasting friendships with women and their children whom they have lots in common with ( live close to each other, so to same school, married, busy, etc.). So I never take it personally when MBs are short with me, but I'm friendly and if they have the time and interest wecan have a friendly chat.[/quote]

OP here- I definitely see that perspective. But it's not like they can only have either or. They could make long lasting friendships with other moms and long-term nannies without sacrifice. It just comes off as we're not good enough, which I am sure to a certain extent it really is. It is definitely a culture shock, my last job the SAHMs had no preference because either way it is going to be the same kids at the playground each day. On my off days I often ended up at the same activities with neighborhood moms with my own child. My lesser income doesn't affect my intelligence, personality, or strive for enrichment in culture and knowledge.

I'll keep going out there and smiling hopefully I'll meet some that aren't that shallow. =/
