I am currently pg with my first child and am already dreading her going to school because of what I have read on here about the playground politics that goes on. Is it really as bad as it's made out? Are there any of you out there who have managed to escape this crap? It sounds like cliquey, bitchy, passive aggressive bullshit that I would absolutely hate. Is it even possible to have your child attend a school without having to deal with all that?
If not wibu to home school my child because it sounds like my absolute worst nightmare??
I live on the same road as a primary school and there has recently been a full on physical fight between some of the mums. They have been warned by the school that if there is a repeat, they will no longer be allowed on school property. Why on earth does it need to be like that? What is it about the school environment that makes these fully grown adults act like high school kids again?
Obviously I'm not a parent yet so if I have got the wrong end of the stick I am happy to be told iabu!
