[quote=Anonymous]Women who weren't as well-educated and sophisticated as she is (PhD, college professor in a bigger city near our small town where women stayed home or worked at the grocery store).  
Women who were overly involved in their kids lives, and by that I mean paid general attention to their kids, attended school events, happily drove their kids to non-mandatory activities, played with their kids.
Breastfeeding.
Women who let their kids go to the mall, shop for not strictly necessary clothes, and care about/buy the latest fashions as opposed to classics you could get at Talbots.
Grammatical errors in writing or speech from school.
Families who went on family trips such as camping.
Religious families (as defined by weekly (or so) church attendance).
Families who thought that places that were the equivalent of today's Applebees or Cracker Barrel could be considered "restaurants."  
Women who didn't keep a perfectly tidy house and have a proper dinner on the table every night.

I could go on and on and on.  She's still ridiculously judgmental.  Perhaps not surprisingly, she was extremely physically and emotionally abusive to both of us kids, negligent in terms of what was going on in our lives and just generally bitchy rather than wanting to talk to us.  She has almost no friends and barely has a relationship with my kids.  [/quote]
