Happy I won’t see these Mum’s again

My DD left primary today.

The Mum’s from her class are so far up their own arses. I’m quite clearly not their kind of person.

I have been in multiple situations where they will literally turn their back on me to cut me out of a conversation.

I am friendly to everyone, and don’t have this sort of problem in any other part of my life.

They don’t say rude things to me, but their body language makes it clear that I’m not worth including in conversations.

Why do grown women behave like this?

I’ve hated going there the last couple of years. I really hate the fact that it has bothered me so much. I’m 48 ffs!

Even today at the leavers assembly, they asked me to move seats, and when I moved up, the woman turned her back, so I wasn’t able to speak to anyone! I have never been that close to saying something! I moved right over the other side of the room. Sick of being treated like that.

I am so happy that I’m not tied to having to go there now.
I came home and deleted myself from the class what’s app straight away! Yessss!!

AIBU to ask all primary school Mum’s who are going back in September to be thoughtful about how their actions make others feel?

We teach our kids to be kind and include others, so why do we often get this kind of mentality with the Mum’s? I’ve seen lots of similar post on here before, so I’m sure I’m not the only one who has experienced it.

"My neighbour is such a stuck up birch. Saw her in the car the other day, and gave her a wave. She literally glared back at me and w on. Bitchy cliquey bitchy mummy mean girl that she is”

But you're giving examples of one off behaviours that are clearly just that. The OP is talking about behaviour that is consistently cruel and cold over a 7 year period. Can you really not see the difference?

TBH, no. One example of a turned back. And many people will experience that once and then decide that that person must be awful and isn’t bothering with, then go along with their confirmation bias about the other behaviours

The OP said "I have been in multiple situations where they will literally turn their back on me to cut me out of a conversation." So not just one case of a turned back to exclude her, even though she gives one specific example simply because it happened recently., She makes it more than clear that there is a long history of this sort of stuff).
