Thanks so much everyone.

I shall be arriving at school early tomo and escorting my friend WELL AWAY from the other mother and steering her towards headmasters office asap lol

PLUS I will meet him out of school and do a reccy see how the land lies for myself.

Thanks again for the advice. Much appreciated as always xx

Thanks Maddies mate.......I will encourage my friend to tell headmaster first thing though so he is forewarned and so is the teacher.

Then it's more concrete xx

Do the reccy ................. if she is staring in go over and say and a really nice and polite way

" Is something happening in there only I noticed you are staring in the class"

She will be shocked to have been spotted and will feel a right idiot and probably never do it again..........and you haven't said anything wrong, all you have done it be polite

Her boy was a Liverpool supporter Maddie til he met Aunty Muffy lol. I adore my mates boys.......both of them now Spurs supporters *grins proudly* both of whom can't believe their luck when they come round and I let them watch hours of footie tapes lol.

I'm sneaky enough to always want to play the long game. Though I can understand how my friend feels cos if it were my kids involved I'd be raging too and common sense often flies out of the window then.
I'll go and meet him.......he knows to look for me or his mum anyhow it won't worry him xx

Sounds like your level headed enough to ort this out correctly. I may be inclined to wait in the playground though tomorrow - dont let mum do it as emotion may get the better of her ...have a reccy yourself - boy should be fine if you are there. If you do see anything unusual discuss it with a teacher - if you dont everyone ones a winner babe! ....Maddie starts to sing.

Would love to see the whole class do that Tina pmpl.... but the mum could prob sue for distress or some such!

Well exactly Sally IF she IS doing it.

Helen ..... this is the first anyone has been told of it.....I'm sure they will sort it all out if it can be proved xx

I would LOVE to lose it with her Julie Ann honest......and I could do it VERY easily.but there is nothing to be gained by doing that ......our headmaster is an absolute gem with enough evidence he'd sort it ....I have every faith in him and I know my mate feels the same ........she just has a REALLY short fuse xx

Could the child not be moved to a seat well away from the window then this woman would have to be really obvious? Otherwise she could claim she didn't realise she was 'glancing' in.

I agree with Sally and the rest who say to deal with it through the school......

......what on earth is this lady playing at staring at a child whilst he is in school.......I thought that children were supposed to be safe from adults male or female while on school premises.....

LOL Julie Ann You are much braver than me then lol

IF I see her do anything I'll grab another mother and get another pair of eyes as testament THEN go all guns blazing to the headmaster.

This mother has already moved her sons school twice because she said he was constantly being bullied......I think she has the problems not him........though I do think her problems are now beginning to rub off on him. xx

Perhaps the whole class could run to the window and poke their tongues out at this person - rude I know but she is being rude herself - how embarrassing would it be to have the whole class staring at her.

My rule in the playground is nod and smile to all and don't get involved outside of school with any of em unless you have to....... I've made about 5 exceptions to this as I have got to know them very well over a long period......but as a rule I don't get involved in playground politics.....it's vicious !! and that's just the parents !!!!!!!! lol x

i think maddie is right u go and see for yourself then go to the school when you have actual proof that it is going on

then if the school dont do out go dierect to the lady and have a quiet word

when my littlone was having trouble last year i went the school twice got no joy so got the mother on the way home and told her in no way would i tolerate it she spoke to her child infront of me or course she hadnt done it but the next day she nocked on my door to play with my daughter and they have been friends ever since

Good luck with this one Muffy! There were only between 16-24 kids at my lots' last infant/junior school so we all knew each other.

I don't envy parents of young children today at all..

I know exactly what you're saying Kim and if it was between two kids I'd leave them to it.........but because it's an adult I think it's necessary in this instance to draw the schools attention to it IN CASE there's something in it.

That's a good plan Maddie. LIttle one will be overjoyed to get my very girly friend (as opposed to her colour pink hating mother lol) to herself for a while and it would be useful to do a bit of a reccy to see how the land lies round there. xx

def school first..


.....if its true ,no doubt there will be some comeback from this person,,that will have to be dealt with as and when by what ever means..

its no good mother going all guns and blazing because even the most angelic child can elaborate on happenings,,,,,,so both sides need to be heard ,,,,,,,,,
