School mum advice/rant

Hi everyone. I’m sorry this is so childish and shocked I am writing this. Is anyone else experiencing school mums clique drama yet? Unfortunately i’ve now become the target for it at the moment. I’m not one to be bitchy/catty AT ALL and dont get involved in those antics. Unfortunately one of the mum’s i thought we were becoming good friends at the beginning has turned into the queen B. She is the eldest of the mum’s and seems to rule the roose and be centre of attention. She’s creating this crappy drama with the other mum’s making out I’m rude etc and i’m not sure why and has started being bitchy to me and my partner in front of the others. I thought we were grown adults and focusing on our priority which are our kids, right? I’m back at work after mat leave so dont go to drop off/pick up every day, most of these mum’s are SAHM including the queen B so they see each other every single day and have become close (which is fine). I tried to clear the air with her and was surprised how she seemed to be blaming me for nothing and seemed to feel entitled to my time and attention when my priority is and always will be my kids. I really cba with this nonsense and shocked this is what happens. Noone warned me 😂 i dont want any if it to come back to my child as she is friends and plays with all the children in the class. I’m obviously trying to stay out of it and not going to entertain this weird thing but i’m not sure if she/they will allow it. I’m not sure how to navigate through this further. Do things like this go away?

Report to the school, for the safeguarding of your kids. Some Parents teach their kids to do stupid and mean stuffs to other kids at school. A boy once spat on my face when my son was at nursery and the mum watched him without saying a word, same boy attached my son twice in class . So speak out now!!!

Ignore her. Kill everyone with kindness. They don’t know you to judge you. You don’t owe them an explanation for her behaviour. Smile, say hello, get your child and go home. If they say you are not as she described naturally they will realise she is a liar!

Just ignore; it’s just not worthy . I’m sorry you are going through this but yes , they are some parents out there who are a perfect example to kids of how to become a bully unfortunately

I felt the same. I hate the clique that form at the school gate during pick up and drop off. I cba. Now I just drop my son 5min before opening and 5 min before pickup so I don't have to stand there long.

Thank you all for your replies. Sad thing is now I feel obliged to make an effort with said person when I really cba and clearly not my type of person, to avoid drama. I’m fine within myself to stand by myself etc and not feel subconscious. Unfortunately the other mum’s who come a little early too join her group even if they dont participate in the convo. I’m also starting to feel they too are bitchy. There are no extra parents outside this group that stand around themselves that come 5mins early either and my LO screams head off in car so cant wait around to go in as I get there early due to school traffic. I’m hoping she’ll move on and this group thing is short lived. I can’t believe how 5 mins pick ups and drop offs could be so dramatic and how immature parents can be.

How sad that grown women behave this way. Sorry you've been subjected to pettiness from other people. Some women honestly have nothing better to do than create drama it's ridiculous . Don't make a effort with said person, just continue to smile be polite, pick up your child and go. I smile and politely say hello to a few mums but that's it, I cannot deal with petty drama. It's a shame because we should be able to form new friendships naturally as our children start school but there's always drama queen, know it alls who have nothing better to do with their day!
