Since having LO I've been very upfront with other parents that "mommy brain" has robbed me of my name-retention skills. Usually they admit the same and we reintroduce ourselves. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/remembering-the-names-of-all-your-kids-friends-parents#post-2212625 Thu, 18 Jun 2015 18:34:52 +0000 Andrea 2212625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know all the parents for DD1's class since we do a lot of playdates. There are only 15 kids so it is easier than 23! I don't know the parents of DD2's class since she doesn't have her own playdates yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/remembering-the-names-of-all-your-kids-friends-parents#post-2212618 Thu, 18 Jun 2015 18:27:19 +0000 mrbee 2212618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There are 23 other kids in my son's Kindergarten, and I run into a lot of them every day at dropoff and/or pickup. For most of them though, I don't know their names - only the names of their kid! </p> <p>I recently spent 4-5 hours with the parent of one of my son's closest friends, and I had no idea what her name was (beyond S's mom). I felt kind of bad but around hour three, I realized that she didn't know my name either! So I guess I'm not the only one with this problem...</p> <p>Do you know the names of all of your kids' friends' parents? </p>
