Weird looks and comments because I don’t “dress” like a mom..

I’m 24 and my first born goes to preschool, I’m middle eastern and there’s a lot of middle eastern women who send their kids to the same school.

Whenever I go to pick my child up they’re always staring at me .

They asked me where I’m from and said I don’t look like I’m middle eastern ( I’m really light skinned , like pale ) and they said you look so young to be a mom .

I take that as a compliment but I just hate the stares .

Like I like to dress in oversized hoodies and sneakers and tights

Other moms come dressed up in makeup , suits , dress pants , blouses , purses. While I stuff my keys and phone in my pocket and call it a day.

Idk why it matters or how my look or clothes effect if I’m a mom or not.

I just hate the silent fake smiles and whispering .

And I’m not being conceited or trying to feel special I just know they are talking about me because most middle eastern people esp Pakistani ( which I am ) are like this.
