There are countless books on parenting, but nothing prepares you for the real thing. It’s magical, exciting, confusing, and often very funny. Kids always surprise their parents, who can only document their feelings for the future.
Parents on Twitter share their funny, relatable, and heartwarming experiences. So, get comfortable, enjoy reading, upvote your favorites, and share your own stories in the comments below.
Wonder why
Funny how that works. It’s like they’re only in it for themselves all the time.
Better that way
Now go find a skateboard or something and start jumping off the dirt road.
Like that sometimes
The poor thing got into an altercation with a fox. Let her limp, that should teach her not to pet strays.
With knitted sweaters and cookies
That’s about the perfect time for mom and dad to go on a two night vacation somewhere far.
That’s always fun
Or try the football carry if you’re really annoyed now.
Dark indeed
When they do find out, it will involve confiscation of toys and getting grounded.
Call the fire department
Or call 911, SWAT, and everyone else deployed. It’s going to get serious.
And 3 cups of coffee
The temptation to not do so is so strong though, isn’t it?
How very honest
Good news is ear plugs are super cheap, so you can buy a whole box of them.
Mom, mom, mom, mom…..
Resistance is futile. You will eventually fall and join in the take over.
In your dreams
They come in squares and rectangles, if the kids ask you. Can make them oval too.
Gas lighting the city with them
That kind of behavior would bring out the Batman and his enemies to be honest.
Sounds about right
Remind the kid everything you had to go through raising them since birth.
Crazy little lady
She had some sort of epiphany and now wants mom to follow suit.
Wrong towel
Well dad has to step in and teach son a few things about men in this world now.
Kid wanted a monster
Even the guy making the sandwich was shocked at what he was putting together.
Hey, officer
Taking any possible delays to delay the inevitable nightmare.
Tiny terrible ones
There’s no department concerned that we can call once the kids get worse.
What a waste of tuition fees
Probably drew with crayons, drank milk, slept, then woke up to do it all over again.
Or not….
The little guy would just get distracted with the dinosaur cartoons on during dinner.
Now for emo music
You know, those rock songs that scream about life and how sad they are.
Roll over down there
They all did after listening to a child ask so many questions.
Let’s get nuts
The fun way to make him sleep is act like Batman’s main rivals and beat him to bed.
She’s got a way with words
Never ever argue with a kid. They’ll make you feel stupid for being smarter.
Skittles in a glass, gotcha
Well the kid got that from the parents, so who’s at fault there?
So funny
You’d have better luck asking that parked semi to transform into a fighting robot.
That’s fascinating
Because a blue slurpee is sure to lift the spirits. That’s a guarantee.
Well good job
Move on to more competitive games and see if they’ll have the same reaction.
Found a sponsor
Get cool sunglasses and maybe colorful socks if you want to be the cool kid.
Part of the show
Good news is that they choose to look at a random caterpillar instead of a phone’s screen.
Playing it tough
Oh let them. Give it another 3 decades and they’ll want the easiest way out of everything.
So what to do now?
Maybe prepare food in colors that match her outfit of the day?
Don’t forget to pray
Then you need to make sure the kid doesn’t have the one ring or a red lightsaber.
No thanks
Pretty scary how AI can now make nightmares out of our nightmares.
With matching eye twitch
The medicine cabinet will have everything you need. Bar opens after class.
Now that’s interesting
Better gas up for all those stores you’ll be visiting.
Oh no
Now we will have to go to church everyday for this poor woman.
Roar back
And that’s why your savings go to your child’s education.
New skill unlocked
It would be even cooler if the kid did that with vegetables. There’s an idea for you!
Have a great time together
This kid, on the other hand, is why it’s such a pain paying for their education.
