This is a long story but I will try and make it short…
my son became very good friends with a baby at a club from a very young age with a child from a group of mums that were already in a group and wouldn’t really engage with me (which is fine I get that ppl make friends in pregnancy groups ect)
later on it so happens my child attends same nursery with 2 parents and they act as if they don’t know me even though our chn are friendly.
one day one of the mums snaps at me one morning at drop off- I then messaged her later that morning to ask if she was ok and invited her for a Friday night out with some others mums which she accepted.
as time went on it seemed the group I’d invited her to had become less friendly to me and less play dates were made.
during lockdown I would msg in group chats and they would ignore me…I got fed up with the group and left the chat as it was making me unhappy.
after the lockdown I noticed parents were blanking me and not talking to me at all.
i know only get contacted when there is a birthday party, they are friendly and chatting up to that point then after the party go back to ignoring me.
this unfriendly parent behaviour has now spilled into my sons school, it seems some parents from nursery are friendly with the school parents and the same situation has followed.
I feel so sad for my son as he’s such a lovely boy and I’ve no idea how to make this better for him?!
has anyone else experienced unfriendly parents?
