Weird parent at school

[Summerwood1]

I was friends with a Chinese lady at my daughters school. The Chinese lady's daughter fell out with another child at school, who's mum i also spoke to. Because I talked to the other mum,the Chinese lady now won't speak to me! My daughter and the Chinese lady's daughter are still friends at school and play together at school,but if we walk past the little girl whist she is with her mother,the child turns away and looks at the grass so she doesn't have to say hello! Yet play together every day at school. My daughter asked if she wanted to come and play,she replied 'I can't my mum doesn't know I play with you' . Our only sin was to walk with the other mum she had fallen out with,bizarre behaviour!!!

I for one am very disappointed. I opened this thread feeling sure that finally, here was a thread about me. I've been weirding people out at the school gates for years, and not one of them gives even the tiniest crap. Clearly I am the wrong ethnicity

Chinese whispers. It's all your own fault. She probably heard your constant references to her ethnicity.

Don't worry op, there are 1.5 billion Chinese people in the world. I'm sure another Chinese Lady will come along shortly.

Hermione - are you a Chinese lady? Are you the Chinese Lady the op is referring to or are you a different Chinese Lady? If you are a different Chinese lady, do you understand why the Chinese lady in this post acted the way she did? Perhaps you could give your viewpoint on the behaviour of the aforementioned Chinese lady?

#ChineseLady

Where is it she's from?

Tamworth

And which is the weird parent to whom the title refers?

How did you know she was Chinese?

I'll admit I clicked on this in case it was about me.

I am definitely not a Chinese lady, though I've heard that ladies from China take school gate weirdness to a whole other level.

Is someone ordering chinese?

Hilarious. JollySanter you are my new favourite poster on MN.

Is the OP the weird parent in the thread? It's a bit like a Chinese puzzle box, isn't it?

Hi OP. Do you by any chance have an issue with Chinese ladeez?

Maybe she sensed you're a bit racist and cba with you? Shame about your dd though.

Zat you, MadSil?

She has a Chinese lady at school who she only refers to as such.

But then, she is insane.

Do you actually know your friend's name, or do you always refer to her as the Chinese lady?

Can I nominate this for weirdest thread of the day?

My 90 year old neighbour keeps referring to that Chinese lady who lives 2 doors down from us. Are you my 90 year old neighbour?

chineselady fucking Arf!

Lets get it trending.

Well they do say that one in four people is chinese, so this situation must be quite common :-p

Meanwhile,somewhere on another forum,there is a Chinese woman posting about the mad British woman who keeps trying to distract her when she is studying the growth patterns of grass.

Oh dear.oh dear oh dear oh dear.

Now I'm hoping this thread (which surely is a wind-up) will go all Spartacus style. 'I am ChineseLady!' times a billion.

I met a Chinese lady once. Weird!

Can we have a Chinese please MN?

You lot are hilarious :)
Thanks for cheering me up after a crap day.
Op - yabu...

My DS is mixed race and people often mistake him for being chinese so I feel qualified to comment on this sensibly. Unlike other posters who frankly are just taking the piss. . In fact I could be considered "chinese mum" despite not actually looking chinese. I am "pseudo chinese mum".

Yes you have weird parents at your DD's school. Several would be my guess.

Hope that helps.
