Anxious parent of ballet student daughter, usually with acute control issues. Will lock the kitchen when she goes out, in case the swan-princess makes a dash for the cocktail chipolatas and can't be squeezed into her tutu for the class concert. Hates other people's children, and wants to keep her own daughter a child forever. Needless to say daughter is so busy battling self-esteem issues and eating disorders she never dances a step after the age of 10.
Paige: "Wow! Tracey's mum's a real ballet mother."
Diane: "Yeah, apparently she makes Tracey sleep in the splits and only lets her have cotton-wool for breakfast."
Paige: "Cool!"
