Re: How do you deal with friends "growing up"?

I'm not "above" it, it's just not in my interest sphere, at all. Those things are not relevant to my life.

I had all those conversations at least once, because I genuinely am interested in what my friends are doing, but there's only so much conversation I can have about a kid I have zero feelings about or about where they got their interior decoration.

It's a bit like sports - nothing wrong with people who love them, I'm just not going to be able to hold a very interesting conversation about it in most cases.

I hate to say it, but a lot of parents don't seem to realize that other people don't find their kids as cute or interesting as they do. It's kind of like pets - I don't mind hearing stories about cute/funny things your pet did every once in a while, but when it becomes a constant thing, it just becomes tiring. It's your pet/kid, not mine. I don't have the same emotional attachment that you do and I can only pretend to be interested in the minutiae of their life for so long.
