lol I wouldn't be too miffed about that. The kid conversations are so damn boring. First it starts off with how they are such a great kid. Then some discussion about how they kept them up the other night. Then the usual, they made their first steps/word/poo on the big potty etc etc. Then it progresses to a discussion about childcare or schools, potentially some complaining about the cost of child care. Discussing their rate of growth is a hot topic and how they keep outgrowing their clothes faster than they can buy them. Discussion of how much energy the kid has and how the parents have taken up midday naps during the weekend. Their next boring outing like going to the zoo, elbow falls, the reservoir or other stroller accessible walking path for the 30th time this year Etc etc etc.
Haha I kid but seriously I've had almost exactly the same conversations to a T with different friends that are parents.
I typically don't bring up kids with friends/couples that don't have kids, unless they bring it up. Typically, I just reminisce about old stories, although I am running out of old stories because I haven't made new ones in a while. So in essence, I'm just lame now, telling the same stories, and sound just like my dad.
Fuck, shoot me now.
