[Filtered to parents/guardians of young children]

I've noticed that there's quite a few of us with young kids in the infant to preteen range. I know that some of us have been here for awhile, but some, like my family, haven't been here very long, and as a result, don't really have much in terms of friends for our children, or a support group of other parents.

Has anyone ever talked of maybe forming a parents and kids group? Like, the parents hang out and talk about our lives or whatever, while the kids all play together? We meet up at maybe different houses or go on outings together, like to museums and the zoo, have cookouts, things like that. Maybe parents who've been around for awhile can give tips to other Displaced parents, and our kids have a group of friends that are in similar situations to theirs.

If other parents wanted to, I certainly wouldn't object to forming a group like this. It'd be nice to have a support group of other parents and it would be nice for my kids to have some friends around their age who are also in the same situation that they are.

I will warn you that because they're descendants of one of the Cardinal Winds in our world, specifically the North Wind, they have extreme abilities in shapeshifting, flying, and grew up quite fast because of those abilities. Winter, in particular, is grown up far beyond her years as she has been chosen to be the next North Wind. When her grandfather died, all of that knowledge became hers.

Connor and Blossom loves the outdoors and being troublemakers, getting dirty — typical children stuff. Ambrose is the quiet one who would prefer to read or tell stories. And then Ghost, who you will never see because he is a zephyr. You may hear him though.

Homeschooling wasn't quite so bad. I had resigned my position as Deputy Mayor considering my ex-husband, Prince Charming, decided he wanted the position of Mayor. I was not willing to work with him.

Cooper and Lila are just regular, run of the mill humans, but they're no stranger to knowing people with abilities, having met the Avengers. They asked Bruce if he'd Hulk out for them. They'll probably love the idea of having friends with superpowers.

I get the feeling that quite a few of the little ones around here might have different abilities, so luckily, they won't feel really out of place.

My husband was a SHIELD agent and an Avenger. While the kids and I weren't exactly completely cut off from the world, we had to be careful, because Clint's profession meant that sometimes, he might get some pretty powerful enemies. There weren't any records of me and the kids anywhere in the SHIELD database, but we wanted to play it safe.

But yeah. I can understand not wanting to work with your ex-husband.

	The kids have always been a bit of a pack, considering their natures. They can change into wolves and run around — which they do often. They do like to give rides though, so that's something Cooper and Lila might be interested in. That does sound problematic, given what I know about the Avengers and their trials here. That must have been ridiculously hard on you. (Reply to this) (Parent)
