I am absolutely mortified. My DD age 2.5 has just stamped all over the daffodil shoots in the school playground. I called over to her XX stop that please. She ignored me, called it over again in a firmer voice she ignored me again. So I went over there and said 'If you keep stamping on the flowers, I will have to put you in the car now you stop it'. I turned round every mother was staring at me, she had a huge tantrum, throwing herself on the floor. And the group of mothers that I talk too, turned their backs on me and excluded me from their 'circle'. She then had a tantrum for the rst of the time, I was waiting for my son. Then she ran off when he came out and almost ran in the road so I was calling after her. She was screaming yet again.
I lost it in the car, I was bawling my eyes out. All the mothers in the playground have made me feel about an inch big. I don't know what to do I feel so ashamed as this is practically a daily occurance. Surely, not all these mothers have perfect children. I always feel like its just me and my DD who is always kicking off. I@ve had about as much as I can bear and am actually considering keeping my son off tomorrow so I dont have to face them.
