A Community like The Villages is an interesting place. Residents come from many different parts of the country with background and experience that can be shared and make our lives more interesting and knowledgable. I have met a lot of people here just like that. However, I have met some who would rather talk about kids, grand kids and dogs/cats. Yeah, that can be a bit boring sometimes. I know you want to say “can’t you talk about something else part of the time”?

OP, that said, I’m thinking that maybe there should be a social club for residents who don’t have kids or grandkids. There are several hundred clubs in The Villages but I don’t know of such a club. “Birds of the same feathers flock together”. BTW we consider ourselves fortunate to have four talented grandchildren.
