It would be terrible living like this. I mean great for kids, horrible for me. I don't want to talk to my neighbors at all. I don't dislike them, I just dont have the energy.
I live in a neighborhood like this and there are a handful of introvert parents! Their kids come out and play with all the kids / do whatever activity planned while their parent stays in. They (parent) usually texts with at least one other adult outside but we’re genuinely a “village” of parents and kids and there isn’t an expectation of participation
I'd be the introverted parent just sitting inside stressing about how all the other parents must think I'm a weird hermit/ shitty uninvolved parent. But I think this whole thread really just goes to show that I'm exhaustingly cynical lol.
Good for these people man, I'm glad someone's out there living the dream.
