Moms Groups

I made a lot of friends by joining a local “Moms Group,” but I don’t actually spend much time attending play groups. But if I wanted to, I could attend a play group every day of the week! I wonder what else these other moms (and dads — “moms group” is actually a misnomer in our egalitarian community) do with themselves if they spend so much of their time attending play groups! Even once a week is too much socializing for me. My daughter must take after me, because when we go to these play groups she always manages to spend the majority of her time avoiding the other babies in favor of exploring the periphery of the room, tasting the dust bunnies, and seeking out dangerous electrical cords.
