When you have a family you realize that the friends you once had may not be there as much as they were before you had a family. It's funny how in the past I heard people say that others think that their friends have moved on because now they have kids and they just don't have the time or they are not in the same playing field anymore.
When people have kids it's not like it's the end of their social life. I don't think anyone should put an automatic stamp on that.
Everyone wants a bit of a social life, whether with children or without. The courtesy of asking as you would before family should still be there. Parents know that there are events that are kid friendly and events that are only for adults, but shouldn't the the call be made by them(invitee) and not others(inviter)?
All of a sudden when non-family friends begin having families they then start wanting to hang out again. Coincidence, I think not.
I've seen and heard it happen to others several times and it has happened by experience at some point as well.
If you are a friend, you should still continue to be a friend, family or not. No discrimination applied.
