The slippery slope of becoming a wannabe "Pro Photographer" that starts with the rule of 1 in 1,000.
With the advent of digital slr cameras for under $500 every mom with a camera takes 1,000 pictures of their child, 1 of those pictures is pretty good and when shown to a friend or family member she hears the golden words "that shot is great...you have a real knack for photography" and so the journey begins.
Without any inkling of ISO, shutter speed, aperture, color balance, lighting, composition...any thought at all (AUTO EVERYTHING) mom thinks she has actual talent.
Through the marketing avenues of friends she books a few gigs shooting babies on bedsheets with gerber daisies, wearing funny colorful hats, hanging in cheese cloth, hands shaped in the form of hearts on expecting bellies, bad lighting, composition and exposure, but the ability to "sell it as art" since she's now a pro shooter.
1.) Images way to photoshopped, skintones are blown out, yellow, way to saturated.
2.) Won't give you a receipt since hubby is the bread winner and doesn't claim her income, it's tax free money under the table.
3.) Uses pirated photoshop.
4.) All the comments on their "mommy photo blog" are posted by the same 10 people every post with generic comments like "OMG, SO CUTE!!!!" or "Lisa, you are SO talented, OMG!!!" It's pretty much a must to have multiple exclamation points OMG! All comments must be dripping with unbelievable back patting ooze.
How was your session? I forgot all of my equipment at the studio so I just soccer mom'd it.
Wow, uuum, those images are really something? Yeah, I went to a soccer mom photographer. We didn't have the money for a professional photographer.
Those pictures look like my mom took them! That's because we used a soccer mom photographer.

The stereotypical vehicle of a soccer mom, the soccer mom van can usually be identified as a 90's Chrystler van with about ten bumper stickers for various soccer leagues.
The criminals evaded the very sight of the soccer mom van, as they were intimidated by the sheer power emitted from it.

The arm, specifically the right arm, a mother (or other driver) uses to protect the person in the passenger seat when they slam on the brakes. This arm is quickly forced in front of the passenger to ensure they do not move the, roughly, three inches they would normally go forward during an abrupt stop.
Thank god she used the soccer mom arm or I would have flown into the windshield!

Most people hate on them because they actually are thier for the children and take quality time and enthuisasim twards thier health and education. Most people that say rotten things about them. "Mad'(key word) because they have no clue. Hopefully a help twards obesidy. Getting your children involved in sports is valuable tool to helping them gain charisma and learning to go to a goal with thier feet and not thier hands or mouth.
Better ways to attain a level headed decision comes from the right idea.
Generalising people when no two are alike is hampering the mindsets of people and frankly a soccer mom will tell you if you don't like them to go pund sand cause it's the only thing you'll be pounding.

In most cases, it is a mother, of a child/children, who finds time to attend society, political functions, charitable or PTA meetings, in conjunciton with driving her kids to their soccer games.
Mary is well respected in the community for her ability to do it all as a socialite soccer mom.
