Oh my gosh...EXACTLY!!!!!! You nailed it. It's this same clique of 3 or 4 moms in the school yard. School ends at 3:15 and these same moms stand and chat for about an hour after. Or, I see the same moms hanging out on the benches at our park on weekends. How sad that they have nothing more informative or positive to chat about.
It just came to the first time I ever 'met' Lulemom...I was about 6 months into my daycare and a woman I had never met before approached me at the park in need of Childcare (she actually made the comment that it was refreshing to see a mom that didn't just plop herself on the park bench while her kids played). I reached for my cards explaining that I really appreciate the feedback being a new daycare provider and all....guess who jumped up from her park bench...'Lulemom' stepped right in between us saying she knew someone that had been in the daycare business a long time...at that point I got busy with my child and just let them have their conversation. The other lady came back to me a few minutes later...and asked for my card (by the time she did contact me, I had filled my last space). Goes to show you the personality of Lulemom though.

Is this woman the complaint police? Why are people complaining to her? That is called gossip and there is no need for it other than to stir up shit, which is exactly what she is attempting to do when she talked to you. If your husband comes home and yells his head off, whose business is it? Maybe he has a reason for yelling. Maybe he just has a loud voice (I know my hubby does). Maybe he is fooling around with his kids being an awesome dad. Don't give this bitch another thought. Women like these show their true self by their actions, other moms will know what she is like as well and likely not believe all of her "complaints" either. Don't let her make you feel bad or worry about your business, it sounds like her yap is bigger than her brains. If she has any more "helpful suggestions" let her know that if someone has a problem with you or your husband, they should talk to you directly since you don't trust simple gossip.
