[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a long time Mom friend who does this and she recruits others to go along with her. She positions herself so that she's involved in everything and always leads her childs' activities. It's all about HER social standing in the end. It's very sad for her kids who she doesn't really pay attention to. It's common to hear her start conversations judging the behavior and social standings of kids at school, sports, scouts, etc. The children with no doubt need therapy later on.[/quote] NP. I was witness to this in our elementary and can totally believe OP's story. It's usually only one mom who recruits other moms who have no idea what's happening. They just get caught up in the rush of being able to live vicariously through their kids. If you remember, there were girls who behaved this way in your HS. This is them all growed up.[/quote] Yup. If I were not an ex-teacher, I would have a hard time believing this post. But I have seen mean girl moms who desperately want their kids to be friends with the popular kids. It is hard to watch.[/quote]
