THE summer holidays have just begun – and while it's meant to give kids some well needed rest, it seems lots of parents need it too.

Taking to TikTok, one dad revealed the absolute nightmare the school run was like thanks to the awkward and cliquey groups of parents.


Shaun Doks, from England, revealed his biggest pet peeve when taking his kids to school.

The dad, who only does the school run on a Thursday and Friday shared his observations of the different groups of parents who appear on the playground.

He said: " How awkward is the f**king school run."

"I pick them up from school every Thursday and drop them off every Friday," he continued.

"I speak to the same people in there but stand in the same like area I don't know any of their names, they talk to me about their kids."

But the dad was always keeping an eye on the other groups of parents congregated in the playground.

He explained: "In the corner, you've got the nosy little buggers, the ones that are talking about everybody else.

"Then you got the others in the other corner, they all can have their fake lips and their f**king fake breasts and they think they're absolutely fantastic and above everybody else."

In another corner are all the single dads says Shaun.

He went on to say he didn't think the phase 'we're not in the school playground' was meant for kinds and instead was meant for adults.

"All the adults cliquey, so f**king clique," he said.

"I can see what's going on, I can, I'm self aware enough to know what's going around me I find it f***ing hilarious man."

The video posted to his account @shaundoks has since gone viral with over 490k views and over 20k likes.

Parents were quick to share their thoughts in the comments – and all of them agreed with the dad's observations.

One person wrote: "I NEVER speak to any of the other parents I feel like such an outcast."

Another commented: "I feel your pain I used to stand alone and nod at them all, people watching is great."

"I agree with you lol," penned a third.

Meanwhile a fourth said: "Yep don't miss doing the school run at all."

"I’m the run in and run out mum,” claimed a fifth.
