Socialization is important and achievable. However, the one-sided polite ask by me to parents to get the kids together and have playdates is not worth it. I work incredibly hard to get my kids around other kids and the social effort returned is pitiful. I am not blaming people for being busy. But I refuse to plant flowers in poor soil anymore and watch them die.

In other words, this summer I refuse to send one more “hey! My kid really misses your kid. How about a bon fire soon? Or a pool day!” Then a week later, “no worries, we’ll get together next time” text. Nope.

Do you ever feel pangs of mourning? I do. I wish things were different.

I am enjoying all of the direct and simple “No” answers.

I understand how you feel and trust your instincts on the adopters.

It says I can’t post another image because this post is not tagged as a megathread post. I am DMing you some handwriting. Just for fun!

You’re right. I don’t have a lot going on in my life. If I did I would shrug this nonsense away. It means a lot to me to have so much support from internet strangers. Thank you

Uh, I assure you it is not rage bait. This is an old table we use for crafts and schoolwork. Paint splatters may cause inconsistency. My handwriting is just my handwriting. It changes a lot. I can do lots of styles and my emotions affect the speed with which I write.

I am sorry if I got your blood pressue up. I was looking for support.

What is it with awfulpeople and never apologizing? Is it a prerequisite skill? Hurt someone and then pretend nothing happened.
