Woman smoking outside my two sons school

[mum2threesons]

this morning!
She was surrounded by children and didnt seem to care.
Im not sure if reporting it to the school would help as she was not standing on school grounds. (and she did look too scary to approach!)

OP i think you should report it to the school. send them an email and copy in all the other parents as well and make sure they all know it's from you. go on, do it. i dare ya.

[KenLeeeeeee]

WON'T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN??

[Tweasels]

Totally agree funnys. OP added the pregnany bit to try and sway favour as this wasn't going her way.

She'll tell us she was kicking a puppy in the face at the same next.

[Alisvolatpropiis]

mrskeithrichards having received a similar text once myself...I think I know what your DH meant

[HullyEastergully]

Was she wearing a giant flat screen telly on her head?

Did she have a bottle of White Lightning in her pocket?

[FreudiansSlipper]

I bet her poor kids have to go without so she can buy fags from their child benefit

[mum2threesons]

Sorry if you think this is a wind up, it truely was not.
I honestly thought people might have an issue with it like I did.
I value your opinions but there was no need to be mean.
This was my first ever post on here, Ive been having a really tough time at the moment and thought I'd try something different and maybe get to know some 'people' on here as a few friends come on.
I really never thought a forum could reduce me to tears..Thanks everyone, you must feel so proud to make another human being cry.
I wont be back.

She's within her rights to smoke on a public street if she wants to.

Smoking while pregnant is obviously not ideal, but not really any of your business, and I have no idea what you expect the school to do about it .

[AutumnGlory]

I could be worse OP. She could be smoking and drinking coaca-cola!!!! I haven't read the whole thread but I see she is pregnant, I'm expecting she had tatoos, she was wearing pyjamas wth Ugg boots, she was fat, on benefits and worse of all she has a big flat screen TV too. I will come back later to check it all.

[HullyEastergully]

She had her telly stuffed up her jumper to make her look preggers

[mutny]

so your way of getting to know people on a forum was this?

Slagging off another parent for what?

what if she is having a hard ting which is why she hasn't quit smoking. And parents like you are hooking their busom at her.

[ChaosTrulyReigns]

Don't be soft.

Honestly, there's no need to cry about such trivial stuff.

Have a nice cup of tae and jump back in somewhere other than AIBU.

[Alisvolatpropiis]

OP - assuming you come back...AIBU is home to seriously robust opinions. Sorry you have been upset. I helpfully and sincerely suggest that you check out the Chat section,it sounds as though it may be more your thing?

Also...smoking when pregnant is vile but is really only her business,nothing anyone can do about it.

[HullyEastergully]

I'm crying now too

[ChaosTrulyReigns]

Ooh, I went all scottishmummy then.

Tea.

[crikeybill]

But how was this getting to know people ?
I'm fairly new too but Im not going to start a thread inviting people to slag off some some randon woman !!

[HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey]

Really

If this has made you cry op them MN is not the place for you.

I hate smoking and people smoke outside my dd school gates, i don't like it but it's none of my bloody business.

I smoked 20 a day until i found out i was pregnant, i don't understand why some people continue to smoke whilst pregnant but again none of my business.

[IwishIwasmoreorganised]

No need to get upset OP, you've asked for people's opinions and you've got the, They're just different to yours.

I wouldn't give up on MN, just avoid AIBU for a while

[crikeybill]

some some randon !! WTF !!

pfft no wonder I lurk ! I can't bloody talk properly !

[Crinkle77]

I am a smoker but I know where you are coming from. I am conscious of other people around me when I smoke and will stand away from people and I would try not to smoke around children. Not everyone has the same standards as me though

[FreudiansSlipper]

move over to chat

Start a thread like what was the first record you bought/first crush has been done hundreds of times but never fails to get lots of replies

Most like being nostalgic on here :)

[BooyhooRemembering]

tissue?



haven't got one. sorry.
