Your children's elementary school has a parent's-only fundraiser evening. The local rec center is rented out with a full bar and dancing towards the end of the night. Everyone is enjoying themselves and their drinks, but a group of Mom's gets noticeably more intoxicated. Their husbands don't seem to mind and they weren't inappropriate but their laughter throughout the auction was a bit distracting. Curious if it's the place to let loose with friends or expected to be a bit more socially aware?

My son’s school has a fundraising gala every year. Most people let loose and have fun. I wouldn’t think anything of it besides that they’re having fun 🤷🏼♀️

Sounds like a good time tbh
It was me! 😂 my girls and I had the best time but I do think we were on another level than the majority. I made a few new friends but noticed some were avoiding us towards the end of the night and at drop off this week, the same few weren't even making eye contact and I never anticipated that having the best time would result in judgment

Theyre at an adult event, fundraising, drinking with other adults. Theyre not being inappropriate, just laughing...thats expected with alcohol being served.
Sounds like they got the night off with their kids and sometimes did their other mom friends and they're having a time. Would iiii get tipsy at an event for my kids school? No. Is it because I think its inappropriate? No. I wouldn't because I know how judgey other parents, especially mothers, can be and so id just avoid it and save my tipsy laughter for when im amongst friends.

I don’t judge anyone personally. Everyone deserves to have fun whatever that might entail as long as nobody is being hurt
