Doesnt mean that thats how she is with them at home!
Maybe she doesnt like you and by getting down and playing with the kids she is being diplomatic as she thinks if you sat and chatted 1:1 you would fall out?
Maybe she feels scrutinised by you so puts on an extra show of "involved mum" for you. And she wouldnt be wrong would she? You ARE scrutinising her parenting: hense your post!
