Faux pas at toddler group

When I was helping at a church toddler group there was great concern about a particular 'young mum' and the support we should be giving her which caused me great confusion/amusement since she was in the year above me at school and had her children about 10 years or so after I did. We all make assumptions all the time and it happens in many different ways. In this instance we all had a good laugh about it especially when I said that I had to admit to having been a child bride! Just brush it lightly off and carry on Tinytwo

Oh, but I was just thinking how nice it would be if one of the mums at the toddler group I go to with my DGS2 mistook me for his mum drifts off into highly unlikely daydream

When DD was in reception I used to chat to another mum whose child was in DD's class. She then told me that the other child she picked up was her DGC in the same class!

It's sad you didn't think you fitted in at the toddler group. My mum used to take my two and the three of them had a great time.
Easy mistake TinyTwo mum did that with a dad at the primary school gates but to be honest I'd spent all term thinking he was the boy's GF

Oh dear! DSIL had a late baby (6 months unemployment for DH at the time) and she was always worried that she would be taken for his grandmother at the school gates.

Haha! Never mind, you were not to know, and there are quite a few older Mums out there these days.
