Hi all ,
I am a lone dad and get on sought of with some parents whilst I wait for my daughter (some say hi some look at me as if they would like to run me over or something .) there are groups of mums who just stand around and slag off other people who I try to ignore , but now there is one who a week before crimbo bellows out across the road " that's the one I'm gonna get my brother to beat him up , he should not be allowed to be at the school " to her friends Loud enough so that I could hear .
For crying out loud , I haven't even attempted to say hi to her , she knows nothing about me and I know nothing about her ( apart from her kids aren't in my daughters class, thank goodness .)
Please advise someone (am going insane )

What a horrible cow. I'd mention it to school, tbh, in case she kicks off again. Sorry, can't think of much helpful other than that. Sadly there are people who are thick as pigshit in this world.

Oh, and I think I'd ask school to tell her she is NOT allowed to harass other parents and that any further insults or name-calling will mean SHE is not allowed onto the school site and will have to make other arrangements to have her child collected.

poor you, she sounds a total cow. i'd have a word with the school, although not sure what they could do

there's loads of dads doing drop offs/pick ups at dd1's school, are you the only dad at yours?

Yes mention it to the Head. She shouldn't be behaving like that at the school. How awful for you Sad

Sounds like she was shit-stirring and trying to provoke a reaction. I'd just stay out of her way.

Try to get there just in time, so you don't have to wait around near her (wait round the corner, if necessary, then move closer right before it's pick-up time). Or try to get to know some of the friendlier parents so you're not hanging around on your own.

Honestly, if she sees she's not getting a reaction from you, she'll probably move on quickly enough.

Are you sure she was directing that at you? Seems most odd if you've never had any dealings before.

If you have concerns speak to the school/police as appropriate.

Definitely have a word with the school. Do you think she could be mistaking you for someone else... No excuse though.
Do not put up with it. Adult bullies are cowards too, just like child bullies.

Threatening violence outside a school - she sounds like a horror. Unfortunately I've witnessed similar outside my dc school - in fact one parent wound up being charged with breach of the peace.
This was after many warnings from the school re her agressive behaviour. I would certainly make the school aware that you were verbally abused outside school - I'd imaging this charmer is already known to them for inappropriate and aggressive behaviour.
And if she does it again, phone the police.

I'm really sorry you are being harrassed like this. What happened today?

wearytraveller · 16/01/2012 21:35

This is horrendous! Really hope you've managed to sort things out.
