Parent trying to be cool with her daughter's HS friends

[G-fused]

Is this woman who is going through a divorce named Mrs. Biterness perhaps?

Anywhoo, she's crackin' up. It's very strange. Doesn't she work or something? I know a parent who is over the line involved with her kids life. This person is over the line in other things too. People are nutso.

No, it is not my wife, I am very happily married.

It is a relative of mine. She doesn't even follow her own daughter on twitter (I don't think her daughter allows her to). She initiates conversations with these high schoolers. Like I said, if you've seen Mean Girls think of Amy Pohler's character. She is more concerned with being a 45 year old being cool with a bunch of 16 and 17 year olds than with being a mother.

Yes, mothers like that will even flirt with their daughters' boyfriends.

My brother-in-law was telling us of a mother who would even get drunk with her daugher's friends, she had such a pathetic need to be cool, she also would go shopping with the kids and try to hang out with them as if she were still 17.
