Ever heard a mother sound like a chicken?

Ever heard a mother sound like a chicken? If you have even been to a child's activity I am sure you have. I try to mute them, but sometimes their negativity leaks through and I hear their clucking.

It's really quite horrible, you get a group of mothers in a SMALL room together and all they do is complain and judge other people.  They even have cliques of who is in and who is out. It's kinda like being locked in a room full of Jehovah's Witnesses,were they all shove their beliefs down your throat at once.

I'm not kidding these mothers are full blown crazy! You hear all sorts of things like " I am going to put my trust in the lord to heal my baby, instead of giving him the antibiotics the doctor prescribed".  Yeah lady because that worked so well years ago when children were dying without said medication with the same illness your child has presently! 

Don't get me started on the homeopathic nuts who think there all natural remedies are the cure all. Trust me I know some of this stuff works but if you heard them out of context you would think these mothers had damn near lost all of their marbles.  You might think they are nuts if you even heard them in context. "Oh I put garlic oil in my child's ear to get rid of their ear ache". Or "I put Vick's on my child's feet to cure their cough". Do you realize this sounds CRAZY?!

Mothers even judge you for what you may or may not feed your child. I understand there are lots of allergies and medical issues you need to be aware of. I even try to give the kids really healthy options but to deny your child Mac and Cheese? Come on that is like a childhood staple. You would like fruit snacks you say? Yeah no you can't have that, but I will make you some from scratch.  Like being a mother isn't enough work on it's own you have to make all their snacks and meals organically. The worst is not so much that they do this but that they look down on the other mothers who don't. They aren't lesser beings, they have other children, JOBS, other commitments.  Trust me I am not looking down on the moms who do this, but not everyone has the time or the funds.

The best is when they cluck over who's child looks the best today.  I swear some of these mothers get up in the morning and plan crazy outfits to out do one another. They are toddlers and preschoolers they really don't care what their friends wearing. They are only going to get it dirty, with food or paint anyways and make their mothers flip a lid! Honestly I have seen mothers not let there children participate in certain activities because they didn't want them to get dirty. Hello they are kids, they do that sort of thing!

Honestly its not high school, can't we all get along?  I thought we were all grown ups here. The gossip and cliques are outrageous. Its just another thing that makes the thought of having children unbearable.
