This is a true story.

A mother approaches another mother in daycare.

Mother A: So it seems like our 2-year-olds are friends.

Mother B: Yes, they adore each other.

Mother A: So. . . I’m sorry, do you work?

Mother B: Yes! I work. You?

Mother A (looking relieved): Oh yes, I work. Do you want to arrange a play date for our kids?
