True. You think that cliquey mom at the pool is horrible? Wait til you see her 12 year old daughter modeling everything she does. [/quote]
Sure did, it is still the parents. Even if you meet the parents and they seem great and nice at first, if you get to know them a bit better, there is always something wrong with them. They might not think what they are doing is wrong at all. [b]Such as a mom that has her dd tell her every single minute of her day in school and all of the interactions, and then she dissects it with her dd and tells her who to "cut off" and who is nice. [/b]She thinks she is doing it for her dd's sake, but she is actually a gossip and teaching her dd to criticize and bully kids.[/quote]

Yeah these mean moms are the ones that always volunteer at the school so they can keep an eye on their kids' social standing and pick on other kids.

I remember one former pageant girl telling me her mom used to volunteer and sub at her school so she could size up the competition and watch the other girls.

Yep. Gotta see it to believe it sometimes. There is one mom that spent every single minute(almost) at school. Volunteered for everything, her dd was/is a bully, mom made her dd into HS cheerleader(even though she had no tumbling at all) and into some "popular" group. She organized a bridal shower for the coach, made all of use give money to her so she gives it to coach, all the potlucks(most were not wanted by the team), she would come to all the dinners and events organized by other parents to "help out," and she tried to take over the events that some other parent organized! Another mom suggested that before homecoming kids come and eat at her place and we all pitch in $12, and this mom e-mailed everyone how she will be there to make sure it goes well and was adding things to it! As if HS kids want to have a dinner with parents in attendance before a dance!
Now, I will say that I am thankful when someone else organizes things and takes that burden, but this was out of hand by this mom.[/quote]
