Re: Moms...
I can't with "Heehaws" lol
At places like Gymboree and Music Together, everyone is very friendly. They will all love you (except when you try to put them on a diet after the first day you meet them!! )

Re: Moms...
From what I've seen yup.
I'm seeing it in my son's school. The ones that already know each other because they have older kids, the ones that were in nursery school together, the ones that are SAHMs with playdates.

Re: Moms...
Unfortunately yes...
Although I have to say that, where I live, it's not that bad...
You have the PTA group, the soccer mom group, the brownie group, etc etc...but all the groups tend to overlap so we all mesh pretty well together...

Re: Moms...
I wouldn't exactly compare it to HS because its just a different dynamic.
But I have noticed like Barbara mentioned people in the same situation seem to gravitate to each other. Which I think is normal as long as they are not bitchy about it. I don't expect or need to be friends with everyone KWIM?
For ex, in one of my local groups a mom said that some other girls were very clique-y, I was like why? because they are all talking with each other? They know each other its only natural, you just have to get in there and join in.
Some people are just shy, etc.
I've found that there were some moms I just had nothing in common with but I continue to go and su ck it up so that DS can socialize and make friends, it all works out

Re: Moms...
I haven't dealt with the whole school age kids stuff yet as I have a newborn, but I was very lucky that a few moms in my neighborhood 'took me in'(we just moved to NJ, so I knew NO ONE!) So don't worry, there are nice people out there, you will make friends!

Re: Moms...
what if you just like sex and not surgery and dieting ? I'm shy so I like hanging out with outspoken people. Clique's are forever existing I think. STINKS!

Re: Moms...
I am super friendly at all GTG's...I dont think there was anyone I thought was too clicky or nasty. I wasnt sure if you just meant LIF gtg's or other GTG's...BUT...I will say this...When I was in my early 20's (pre-degree), I was a nanny for 3 children and if I told you that some people gave me dirty looks like...why did I have 3 kids and was so young...I would so not be lying. So clicky in age groups...maybe? I dont know what the theory behind that was. BUT I guess I am allowed to have 1 (since she is my own and I am "of age" HA!)

Re: Moms...
Sometimes. I find some other moms to be judgmental or really braggy about their kids. That was kind of off putting.
Yes there is a common bond, but styles of mothering are so different. Put yourself out there and try different things. I tried a few mom groups and met different people. You want to find someone you will click with and enjoy the time with!
Good luck!
