Home Based Business Moms

Question: Are Moms Clubs just a way for people to promote their home based businesses?
I recently joined a local moms get together group and at first was so excited only to realize that everyone in the group was trying to sell something. Scrapbooking supplies, cosmetics, food, etc. I began to wonder if those clubs were not just about promoting home based businesses!!! Any feedback...Anyone in a similar situation or am I wrong? I would love to hear from you!
Answer: I've noticed the same thing in my area. We're new out here, and I'm about to have our first baby, so I thought I'd try to meet people "like me". I think what happens is that a lot of these mom's join for the social aspect, but are also struggling to "Work at Home" with these businesses and end up bringing it with them.
In my first week of knowing these ladies I got invited to Discovery Toys, 3 Mary Kays, Tupperware, and some sort of Erotic Toy party. Only once did someone actually ask me to "hang out". Otherwise it's all parties. Needless to say, I don't keep in touch anymore. Plus, the group wanted to charge annual dues!!
I've had better successes at my church meeting just normal people who want nothing for me, and don't see me as a referral for a party.
It's frustrating, but I do believe it's possible to meet young mom's/women who want to do more than sales parties.
