oh this thread is great

patronising mum
tries to join in playground chit chat but somehow comes across as annoyingly arch
has own slightly glamourous business e.g. events organiser
laughs slightly too loudly at your jokes and gives you full eye contact and nods vigorously because she is so jolly interested

[harpsichordcarrier]

bored childminder
stands silently in playground in large dark glasses with silent child in ratty pushchair
in charge of about a hundred children, all bashing each other and racing up and down steps
only speaks to other childminders

[MrsMattie]

School Nazi Mum

'Your sending your child to the local state ^primary?'

[harpsichordcarrier]

enthuiastic childminder
manages to keep better control of her hundred children than you have of your one child
walks everywhere very quickly with pushchair the size of an aircraft hangar
has variety of nutritious snacks in tupperware boxes of varying sizes and Ikea cups of various bright colours.
always cheerful
never seems to have the same group of children two days running

[Janni]

MNaddict mum.
Losing touch with real life.
Tells children she's doing her work on the PC.

[MrsMattie]

Allergen Mum

Convinced her child is intolerant to wheat, dairy, meat, cats, sugar, grass, air, life...despite the fact the child is obviously a ruddy faced picture of health and is absolutely fine after consuming huge amounts processed chicken nuggets with lashings of lemonade on playdates at your house...

[Janni]

Guilty mum.
Can't believe how low her standards have fallen by the time the third child comes along.

[harpsichordcarrier]

[Cammelia]

ranting mum.....always irritated!!!

(me today)

[Fllight]

I think I'm that 'losing touch with reality' mum...

also paranoid mum

We have a 'rock star wannabe' dad as well (high proportion of dads at ours)

he has long hair but is not good looking.

Drives a flashy sports car

nervous and will not smile

High drama mum
always talks to you if your child has had something contagious or exciting wrong with them
Quietly whispers how she loses it with her child every morning, in fact you suspect she really doesn't like the kid

and you know she would never admit it to anyone else but is confiding in you because she thinks you are the 'losing it' type and regaularly wallop your chldren.

[taipo]

Journo mum

Every other bleeding article she writes is about her oh so perfect and interesting family cos she ran out of real ideas years ago.

[Fridayfeeling]

(Vicky) Pollard Parents

Shove the kids out of the E Reg Ford Escort ourside the school gates, "Shut up and get in". Finish their fags.

Kids called something that is not gender appropriate. e.g. Sydney for a girl

Look 20 years older than their actual age (around 19)

[Fridayfeeling]

Just-split-up-from-partner parents

New hair
New clothes
Spring in their step and chat
Been out partying all night
"The kids aren't affected in the slightest"

[FYIAD]

[OrmIrian]

Teflon-glance mum. To be found in the playground in the mornings. Will talk briefly whilst her eyes are sliding away from you uncontrollably looking for one of her real coffee-drinking-M&T-going-in-and-out-of-each-other's-houses friends. Not some poxy useless WOHM

[MamaG]

Mournful Mum

Usually wears nasty clothes and has a bad hair cut
Master (mistress?) of the art of looking sad but brave
When asked how she is, will sigh, smile bravely then tell you about her piles
