DD is 11 and is year 6 at school.
In reception she became friendly with a girl in her year group. Like most girls, their friendships change all the time and sometimes they hang round together a lot, and at other times they hang around with others. They have never been 'best' friends but have always been friends and not had any major fallouts that I know about.
The mum of this girl seems like a very sensitive person who takes things very personally about her child. To cut a long story short, when DD and this girl are spending more time together and closer friends this woman is fine with me and is nice.
If the girls are going through a stage of not hanging round together and spending time with other friends, this mum does not talk to me. She ignores me totally, and has a couple of times deleted me from FB and then re-added me when the girls are good friends again. She does these things to some other mums from her DD's friendship circle too.
At the moment she seems to be going through a phase of not talking to me again. I saw her in a shop today and said hello to her and she just carried on walking and ignored me. When she is 'talking' to me she is friendly and chatty.
How would you deal with her? DH says I should just start ignoring her permanently and have nothing to do with her even when she decides to speak to me again, but I have a feeling as she seems to hyper sensitive that she will turn it into a huge issue and it'll cause problems for DD at school.
