Enjoy These Funny Tweets About the Realities of Parenting Siblings

Oh, moms and dads…we can only imagine the trials and tribulations that you’re experiencing right now.

Especially if you have MORE THAN ONE KIDDO to look after during these unprecedented and turbulent times.

You’re trapped in the house with no escape and, as you can probably guess, the kids are at each others’ throats…and then that spills over to the parents who then lose their minds and turn on each other, etc.

Funny Tweets About Parenting Siblings

As someone who grew up in a house with four siblings, I can only imagine the daily hell that we put our parents through, now that I’m older and a little bit wiser.

There were certain days where all five of us kids were fighting, screaming, and threatening to run away. Good times! And I’m sure that my mom and dad were just delighted to be dealing with that kind of BS after working all day to put a roof over our heads and food on the table.

Mom and dad, I apologize and I’m still trying to make it up to you…and yes, I’m still the best child of the bunch.

Parents with multiple kids, these tweets are for you…enjoy.

1. That’s a long story.

Because we love them more than you…

2. It was an accident!

I swear!

3. Let all of them play.

Gonna need to talk to the city about this.

4. Stop it!

You are crossing the line.

5. Middle child gets it again.

It’s the “Jan Brady” syndrome.

6. It’s all mine now.

But I swear it was an accident.

Hilarious Tweets About How Weird Sibling Relationships Really Are

If you have siblings, you know how it goes.

You love them and you’d do anything for them…but they also drive you crazy, you fight with them constantly, and a lot of times you don’t even want to be in the same room as them.

Hey, it’s just the way it works!

I have four siblings and I can say that all of these tweets you’re about to see are 100% accurate.

Let’s get some straight talk about how sibling relationships really work.

1. Very strange…

True love is harsh.

2. Go get it yourself.

Your legs aren’t broken.

3. Funny how it works out that way…

DO NOT TOUCH.

4. I don’t like you right now.

But we all know there’s still love under it all.

5. Just stay away.

But you can count on me.

6. You hurt when they hurt.

But…you don’t want them to be around your stuff.

7. Nobody better touch you.

Or they’ll have to answer to me.

8. No favors. Ever.

But I’m glad you’re here.

9. Just can’t stand it.

Gotta stand up for them. Always.

But let me know if you need any real help.

11. No sharing.

Not today. Not ever.

No one else is allowed to be annoyed by you.

How about you?

How do things work with your brothers and sisters?

We want to hear the good, the bad, and the ugly!

Thanks!

Does this never-ending lockdown and the learning-from-home thing have you at the end of your rope? Or are you dealing with it just fine?

A Post Urges People to Replace “Moms and Dads” With “Grown-Ups”

Families come in all shapes and sizes.

This is something we were told as children, and it’s something many of us reinforce with our own kiddos, but there are still so many ways the world assumes that “parents” are “mom and dad.”

As I’m sure we’re all aware, some kids don’t have a mom or a dad. Some only have one. Some have two of one and none of the other.

This Instagram post reinforces the idea that, by using the term “moms and dads,” teachers and other adults, need to do more as far as remembering to be inclusive and welcoming of all types of families.

The post uses a screengrab of a tweet from Sirry Aland, PhD.

“Teachers, your class convos are broadcasted in everyone’s homes. The # of times the teacher has said ‘your mom and dad’ to my kid’s class is infuriating. But a BRAVE kid just said… ‘But I only told my grandma at lunchtime because my sister and I live with our grandma.”

Little sweetheart standing up for everyone like him, who was probably annoyed and a little confused about why the teacher was acting like his family wasn’t a real family.

The post encourages everyone who works with children to consider saying “your grown-ups” instead of “your mom and dad,” or “your parents.” It’s a simple switch but, like with everything new, might take some getting used to.

I know we can all do it, though, because if we work with kids, we care about kids – all of them, regardless of their situation.

As the post also points out, adult language and the way adults embrace a reality can make all of the difference to a little one still trying to make sense of things.

Give it a try; I know I will!

Check Out These Bean Pole Tents People Are Building for Their Kids

I know that some people are already thinking, “dang, parents are going way too far trying to make the experience of childhood magical,” but hear me out.

First of all, everyone is trying to cope the best they can right now, and second – I think half of the “magic” is for the parents themselves, not only for watching their kids’ eyes light up.

And the latest magic to light up everyone’s summer garden are magical bean pole tents.

Yes, like Jack and the Beanstalk, but with no monsters or ogres or whatever lived up there in the clouds.

If this idea intrigues you, make sure and look closely at all of these images, plus watch the video below.

For now, here’s your materials list: poles, twine or string, and pole bean seeds or annual climbing flower seeds.

Runner bean tent!! #rookies #beantent

A post shared by Alison Scott (@a_l_i_s_c_o_t_t) on

Your kids can help out, which will teach them about growing and caring for plants, and in the end, the pretty little structures are sure to improve everyone’s summer.

And look at how happy this tot is in her bean bungalow that’s close to being finished…

Now, of course there are those who take this kind of thing MUCH more seriously… and this bean tent is LEGIT.

View this post on Instagram

We have been doing this bean tent for many years now, in the past couple years we have added many herbs around it and used it as the start to one of our little food forest permaculture areas. In keeping with trying to be more permaculture we plwanted Scarlet Runner beans for the first time I would say usually it look more full but it's stilldoing really well hopefully next year I won't have to plant anything there and the beans and dill will run wild together. #citystead #homestead #urbanhomestead #farmstead #mygarden #gardening #gardenlife #homesteadlife #bushcraft #growyourown #growyourownfood #growfoodnotlawns #homegrown #urbangarden #permaculture #foodforest #urbanfoodforest #beantent

A post shared by Joshua De Yonker (@thecitystead) on

Here’s a tutorial if, like me, you’re still wondering whether or not you can pull this off.

OK, I’m definitely doing this with my kids next summer. It seems so easy!

We could all use a little more magic in our lives, if you ask me!
