A soccer mom is an overly-protective
mother whose role is to live the life of a
child herself. She is usually shallow, ill-informed, self-indulgent, insecure. She assumes that “family value” kids like hers can do no wrong. She has never elevated herself from the high school focus of being popular, being “seen”, being “cute.” Her role in life is to “fit in,” her “thinking” is “cliché driven,” she is “family value” focused, but has no real understanding about what the term means and would be at a loss to try to define it. She feels
sorry for those who do not have soccer mom credentials, who have no suv, no children, no “fashionably family valued” family like hers. Her kids are an extension of herself, so she herself is a
kid, and she molds them, transports them, educates them to think in the same shallow
kid-like
way she thinks. She is a “control freek” at
heart with a mindset that is shallow and mindlessly routine. She doesn’
t have the courage, the depth to express herself outside the “group think” of her soccer mom associates, for as in her high school days, she still seeks esteem from others by being popular, one of the
gang. Wars, pestilence, poverty, the environment are issues that pass her by and always will. She is a robot, a
child who has grown older but not wiser, an american
dream tragedy culture has promoted, not having the depth to see or understand the sickness it has fostered.
