Some people never grow out of high school drama, and apparently, that includes these moms. High school was all about cliques — the jocks, the brainiacs, the rebels, and the princesses (cue The Breakfast Club references). Well, these moms are still stuck in a clique of their own, and they’re dragging their own kids into it.

After forming resentment toward another mom (for reasons so petty you’ll have to read to the bottom to believe), they decided to freeze out her 8-year-old daughter from playdates and birthday parties. But the kids didn’t care about the drama. They still wanted to be friends. So, the mom of the excluded kid came up with a genius plan to expose the mean moms… and it worked a little too well. Not only did it backfire iconically, but now their own kids are turning against them. And in a few years, these moms won’t be able to control who their kids hang out with. It looks like there may be some hope for Gen Alpha after all.
