Has anyone really struggled meeting mum friends because of political concerns? I have always been very left wing ( pro palestine , supporting trans/gay rights , anti racism) and even more so after having a baby because I feel like i’m even more passionate to have a kind world for our children . I get a little worried when i meet other mums at baby groups that i’ll find out they’re actually right wing or against a lot of the morals i hold and i wouldn’t be able to keep that around my child . Not sure if it’s normal to feel so strongly about politics around my baby.
But also if it makes me uncomfortable then that’s also an issue i guess ?

Girl yes. Keep looking. I’m so conscious of it now. Especially because I have brown babies and I need to know they are safe, loved and respected.

Yup. People will tell you “politics don’t matter” or “I can be friends with anyone regardless of politics.” Those are usually the folks I avoid
