These Parents Are Willing to Tell It Like It Is

The good, the bad, the ugly – raising children has all of it, oftentimes in the same day (or the same hour). And while it’s fun and sweet to read about the happy times, the truth is, sometimes it can make you feel badly about your own failures.

These 13 parents, though, are willing to honestly – and hilariously – give us the honest takes on the days that just don’t go as we’d hoped.

13. You gotta keep your claws sharp.

I promise some day you’re going to need them.

12. That’s a fun game.

For about five minutes.

11. It’s reasonable at this point.

Daydreaming is encouraged.

10. By quite a margin, I would imagine.

That’s a record you’re not going to break.

9. I’m surprised it took this long.

Girlfriend puts up with a lot.

8. Round trip will cost you extra.

Savvy kid.

7. It’s like it’s your first day.

The fear and the confusion all over again.

6. I honestly don’t see the difference.

Anything goes these days.

5. And with your own kid you have no one to blame but yourself.

It’s true. You know it.

4. The devil you know and all of that.

Don’t rock the boat.

3. The bathroom is not yours.

Nothing is yours, tbh.

2. Just wait, you little imp.

Then you find out you weren’t letting her win.

1. He’s not wrong.

It’s a sad state of affairs.

The great thing about being a parent is that you can always try again tomorrow.

Keep trying friends, just stay in the game and eventually, you’ll win.

Or something like that.

Parenting Tweets You Don’t Want to Miss

If you’re wondering if you’re the only person out there with crazy kids, a life that always feels up in the air, and a job that just won’t quit – in the year on steroids – you’re definitely not.

And if you need proof, let me offer up these 14 parents who are hilariously muddling through it all, just like the rest of us.

14. It’s important to be practical.

I approve of this parenting tactic.

13. Just living the dream here, people.

The things no one tells you, I swear.

12. Given the current state of the world, they’re learning it sooner.

Dammit.

11. This child is going places.

Not sure where yet; have to wait and see.

10. They weren’t bothering you though.

I fail to see the issue.

9. Never rob a house with young kids.

Or older kids parents don’t have money or nice things lol.

8. Hey, you gotta ask for what you want.

Otherwise you won’t get it for sure.

7. A “miracle.” Sure.

Let’s go with that.

6. Otherwise you could be taken straight jail.

I don’t make the rules, guys.

5. You can say you’ve had your workout today.

Now go and get a glass of wine.

4. She handled that about as well as can be expected.

Which is to say, probably laughing herself to death.

3. It’s never really what you expect on any given day.

That keeps it interesting, I suppose.

2. Kid has your number.

That’s what you get for raising him right.

1. But seriously don’t do this.

It’s terrible advice.

I’m definitely feeling more at home in my zany life!

What’s the silliest happening at your house since all of this started? We’d love to hear the story in the comments!

These Parenting Tweets Hit All the Right Notes

Here’s the thing about parenting tweets: just when you think you’ve seen all of them, and there will never be more that impress you or make you laugh, someone proves you wrong.

Or in the case of these 15, more than one someone. At least, we think so!

15. And that’s just for the parents.

The rest of you saps can find your own.

14. It is a time-honored tradition.

It shall live long after your kids and grandkids are grown.

13. Those two things do not go together.

If you’re without screens, no one is relaxing.

12. If you want people to meet you where you are…

Everyone should bring earplugs.

11. I think they wear name tags.

This is a really good question though.

10. It’s technically the same thing.

A mean teacher would still mark it wrong on a test, though.

9. He might as well join the fray.

He’s no less informed than Karen from high school drill team.

8. All necessary school supplies if you ask me.

Or anyone else attempting this feat.

7. How to be a Queen, 101.

She’s being taught well.

6. You definitely can’t answer those in a minute.

Or even in a week.

5. That pretty much sums it up.

They’re cute though.

4. Everyone knows this will happen.

Everyone who has ever been inside an elementary school, anyway.

3. Mothers do not get enough breaks.

Especially not in the current scenarios.

2. Decompression takes time.

You can’t rush these things.

1. Bless her heart.

This made me snort-laugh.

 

One of my parenting goals is to one day make one of these lists!

Here Are Some of the Best Tweets From Parents We’ve Seen in a While

Parents have some of the best Twitter accounts – at least, that’s what I think now that I’m a parent. We just love to congregate and tell war stories and reassure one another that yes, it’s definitely a phase (because it’s always a phase!).

If that sounds like something you need in your life, then please enjoy these 14 lovely tweets!

14. This is the best joke I’ve read in awhile.

And what an excuse for class!

13. Kids are gonna be kids.

Get some tweezers, teachers.

12. Probably more than once.

And if you’ve got two kids (or more), my heart is with you.

11. I’m not sure he knows what that means.

Bless his heart.

10. It’s a beautiful name.

If only it had worked out.

9. That’s the perk of being the teacher.

I hear you get gifts on holidays.

8. “Oh.”

Run if they begin a sentence this way.

7. Honesty is the best policy.

Also they don’t need a reason.

6. Kind of makes you want to cry, doesn’t it?

You’re welcome.

5. Wasn’t that the goal?

Maybe not in so many words.

4. After having two kids, I think this is scientifically accurate.

Fight me.

3. “Walking the dog” is the greatest excuse to escape ever.

May I also recommend listening to audiobooks or a podcast while you do?

2. It’s the patience part that’s the hardest.

It will be the test of your life.

1. It really is.

But I mean, it’s all exhausting, so.

I want to virtually high-five all of these folks!

Parenting Tweets for the Rest of Us

Some days I enjoy scrolling through all the posts my friends and fellow parents put up, their kids dressed and smiling and everyone getting along.

Other days, I want to know what y’alls lives are really like, and for that, I go to Twitter – and to tweets like these 12, which remind us that no one’s life is perfect (but there’s usually humor to be found).

12. No judgement.

You’ve gotta get your kicks where you can.

11. The prayer of the parents of strong-willed kids everywhere.

Don’t kill their spirit, they said…

10. Sounds like you’re raising him right.

You reap what you sow and all that.

They’ll forget it tomorrow, don’t worry.

8. They keep you on your toes.

For better or worse.

7. They have a lot of questions.

And they do not care about your vanity.

6. Hangry is a real problem.

I feel like doing that myself sometimes.

5. The milestones just keep coming.

Even if you don’t really want them to.

4. That moment comes for all of us.

There’s no avoiding it; might as well celebrate.

3. The horror.

Mom wishes she was alone at lunch, too.

2. No explanation necessary.

It’s on hand for everyday emergencies. Like your children.

1. You can’t be expected to perform miracles.

Even though you basically do every day.

You gotta laugh to keep from crying some days, right?

What’s your favorite way to remember to smile in the midst of the chaos? Give us your tips in the comments!

These 15 tweets aren’t just halfway decent, though, so if parenting tweets are your think, you definitely don’t want to miss these!

How else shall we get through it, besides laughing (or crying or drinking) together?

We won’t, which is why we didn’t want you to miss these 13 super funny and relatable tweets.

13. I think it’s just called “owning a toddler.”

You think cooking three meals a day, plus snacks, at HOME is hard?

Enjoy These 14 Tweets About Parenting

We really like to share the love with all of you, and when it comes to hilarious and true tweets about parenting, there are never enough to go around!

Parents need to know that others are in the same trenches they are – or have come out the other side safe and sound – and these 14 tweets will make you laugh, and then raise a glass.

14. Those poor sweet second babies.

Don’t even get us started on the ones after that.

13. I definitely don’t think it’s the former.

“Hot Cross Buns” could go either way.

12. It’s important to put them in their place.

And also to educate them on all things Star Wars.

11. All we want is to be away from the beings that made us a mother.

It’s not you, it’s us. Promise.

10. All life lessons are important.

Being frugal is a lesson, right?

9. And by “cool,” he means “eye opening.”

Who hasn’t called their mother to apologize at least once?

8. Always annoy your kids when you can.

The payback opportunities are endless.

7. Hey, that’s my size, too!

What a coincidence!

6. They never have any idea how it happened, either.

It’s a mystery but I guess we should have been watching them closer.

5. That child is going places.

I’m not sure where, but those feet have to be good for something.

4. Details, details.

It’s almost like he doesn’t WANT any empty house attention!

3. No, because none of the Frozen stories make sense.

Sorry not sorry y’all.

2. It is one of the laws of the universe.

And it works for anything and everything you promised to do.

1. Stepping on sucked-on oranges is my favorite.

Who doesn’t want to live in a house of horrors like this?

We’re all doing the thing, y’all, and in 18 years we’ll be the lame folks telling younger people to “cherish every moment.”

Just kidding. I solemnly swear I will never say that to anyone, and you should, too.

Parents Know How True These 11 Tweets Actually Are
