Proved myself wrong 30 minutes ago...thanks to this thread.
This morning I was walking down the block to grab some coffee and I noticed there was an early 20s girl walking with her mom and showing her around.
It was obvious the girl had just moved into the area and was eagerly showing off her cool new NYC neighborhood.
I took notice as we passed, made eye contact with both of them and smiled.
Briefly thought about the discussion on this thread and what I could have possibly said to open them.
I grab a coffee, flirt with the super cute barista for a minute, and head back out.
And what do you know…mom and daughter are standing on the corner pointing at a church.
I'm already in friendly mode from flirting with barista and walk up to them without hesitation and say “did you hear they are going to start putting apartments in that church?” (they are, really)
“No, are they really???”
“Yeah, blah blah blah…”
Then I ask if she lived in the neighborhood.
“Yes, just moved from florida.”
I say “oh and this must be your mother.”
“Yeah...blah blah blah”
I ask if she has taken her to a famous local restaurant…she has not even heard of it…blah blah blah.
Then I tell her that there is a really good jazz club nearby and I bet they would love it.
She asks me when they have bands there and I say…”here, put your number in my phone and I’ll let you know when and maybe we can meet there.”
Boom.
Mom was so happy.
A big part of it was that I was super friendly and in total ‘nice guy’ mode. I was also dressed well…a huge standout from most of the degenerate hipsters in this neighborhood.
So yes, you can certainly game girls when they are with their mom.
*I don't plan on texting the girl though, she wasn't up to standards. But it was fun, and I feel great now!
