Why Do Moms Groups Do This? And Any Suggestions?

I understand that a lot of moms are able to be SAHM, but I'm not. I'm not even sure I'd want to be, but that's another topic.

What peeves me off is this. Yesterday I saw an ad for a Moms group near here. Right on the ad it said "we welcome all moms of children under 5". But guess when their meetings were held? Tuesday mornings from 9-11 am. If they're so welcoming of ALL moms, why not actually have their meetings when working moms might be able to attend? Stay at home moms could probably just as easily attend during the evening or on weekends or something, and that would be better for most working moms. I would really LOVE to meet some other moms, because I don't really know that many with kids roughly Yuna's age. But if none of the mom groups have meetings except during the day on weekdays, I can't do it.

Does anyone know of any mom groups that are actually working-mom friendly? I'd especially like to meet some moms in real life, but even online groups would work. I find the ones I've looked at online pretty hostile to working moms, however, so I'm not holding my breath.

Are there any groups specifically FOR working moms? That would be ideal, obviously.
