11 Parenting Tweets That Are the Cream of the Crop

As you all know, cream rises to the top, but with so many hilarious parents giving us their best humor on Twitter every single day, it can still be hard to skim off the very best ones all by yourself.

That’s where we come in – and these 11 tweets are really some of the ones you shouldn’t miss this week.

11. Time for a life lesson.

Make a list of things Mommy doesn’t want to do every day.

10. Subtle but important difference.

If you say so, Dad.

9. It’s almost like he’s…not human.

I’m just saying.

8. Wait until you’re 40.

Things are downhill from here.

7. We know these consequences all too well.

And yet we keep buying Legos.

6. Way too early for any conversation at all, tbh.

Why do they want to talk before coffee?

5. It can go either way.

Depends on what else has been going on that day.

4. Plus all of the song and dance numbers.

That’s got to be a bonus.

3. It’s the best show there is.

According to anyone under the age of 10.

2. You really can’t expect anything else.

Definitely doing it right.

1. It’s not a long list.

And none of it is fresh.

 

Parenting can be a universal experience in some ways, don’t you think? After all… we were all children. Even if we don’t have children ourselves, we understand that dynamic of at least being around parents and seeing their struggles firsthand… because we’re causing them. 😉

So that’s our hot take! What’s yours? Which of these have you already shared with a friend?

Tell us below in the comments!

Parents Who Work to Find the Humor in Temper Tantrums

Every parent, no matter how well-behaved their child is normally, knows it’s not a question of if – it’s a question of when your kids will throw a tantrum.

Your child will pitch a fit, probably at least a handful of times in public, so it’s important to prepare yourself ahead of time. Me? I practice repeating to myself “my child isn’t giving me a hard time, my child is having hard time.”

Does it work? Sort of.

These 12 parents know that one of the best defenses is simply being able to laugh at the absurdity of it all…and to know it will all be over soon enough.

12. It’s even more annoying like this, honestly.

Drum up some real feelings or get outta here.

11. It’s funny until you get to the last sentence.

Then it’s hilarious.

10. That’s an impressive train of thought for a toddler.

Seriously, my kid’s attention span would never have it.

9. That’s fairly terrifying.

As all toddlers can be at times.

8. Maybe being honest will work.

You’ve tried everything else.

7. Bless his heart.

They just have so many feelings.

6. Learning to manage your feelings is a lifelong task.

Be gentle with yourself.

5. I mean it probably will.

Gotta get those feelings out.

4. You can try to do both.

That’s a pretty complicated facial expression, though.

3. The solution is part of the problem.

Who could have guessed?

2. To be fair, I always try to convince myself I only need two pancakes, too.

Give the girl her pancakes.

1. That is a fair problem.

One easily solved, I suppose.

 

Ah, kids. They’re going to be just fine, you know?

Tell us your best way to handle tantrums in your house – I want all of your tips and tricks below!

These Parents Know the Best Way to Handle a Tantrum Is by Laughing

If there’s one thing that bonds the parents of toddlers together, it’s our experience handling meltdowns that make zero sense, and always occur when we have the least amount of time to devote to the crazy.

These 11 parents do their best to laugh at the whole sh%tshow, though, and I’ve gotta say, I think they’re onto something.

11. What kind of monster buys the kind without meatballs?

I mean. It’s hard to blame the kid here.

10. Getting a little closer every day.

Bless his heart.

9. This is a whole mood.

Life’s hard, kid.

8. The man is an expert.

Years of observation and experience.

7. Sophie’s Choice.

There’s no right answer. It all depends on the day.

6. God don’t like ugly.

Man, my kids are going to hate that phrase as much as I did.

5. He’s set a new record.

I bet his wife gave him a high-five.

4. Just take her mirrors away.

You’re not going to stop her sticking her tongue out.

3. Could have gone with her gut.

But you know. It would have gone bad either way.

2. No explanations necessary.

Let that be a lesson for everyone else, as well.

1. At least he’s honest.

And curious, too!

Laughter is, I think, one of the best tools in a parent’s emergency box. And if you don’t have laughter, well, raising a kid is going to be A LOT of tedious work that’s no fun. And nobody likes NOT having fun.

Tell us in the comments the funniest place your child has pitched a fit!

Do it now!

Parents Share When They Found the Humor in Their Child’s Meltdown

One of the best things you can learn to do as a mom or dad is to laugh in the face of the absolute absurdity that is life with little kids most days.

They have no idea how to human, or how to life, and sometimes those things combine into an epic explosion of emotions.

As their parent, it’s your job to catch the mess and show them how to wrestle it all back in the box – and trust me, that’s easier to do if you don’t take any of it too seriously.

13. Tell yourself again how you should get ready earlier.

I’ll wait.

12. Is there an appropriate time to play with butter?

You know what? Don’t answer that.

11. No explanations necessary.

Let that be a lesson for everyone else, as well.

10. At least he’s honest.

And curious, too!

9. The silent scream.

They can hold their breaths for a really long time.

8. Even butterflies can set them off.

You really never know.

7. He’s just worn out from the water park.

Not that it helps you now.

6. Enjoy her not being able to spell while it lasts.

Then again, she probably wouldn’t care anyway.

5. Kudos to Mom for knowing the difference.

Hat’s off to moms of girls.

4. Yes I think she’s doing it right.

If not, who will know?

3. It’s a disappointing world.

On the upside, we’re not incinerated.

2. *sets tweet down*

*backs away slowly*

1. That must have been a good one.

I bet his wife is thrilled. For today.

These are some high parenting marks!

I hope that the next time my kid melts down I can remember to be so cool under pressure.

Parents Who Were Tough Enough to Laugh in the Face of Tantrums

No one likes it when their kid throws a tantrum, but listen – it’s inevitable, and it’s not your fault, no matter what sort of judgmental stares you get in the line at the grocery store.

Learning to manage emotions is a normal and healthy part of childhood, so there’s no reason to feel embarrassed.

An excellent lesson, but if you can go one step further and learn to laugh about it, you’ll be on your way to being as chill as these 10 parents.

10. It’s a short list.

Non-existent actually.

9. A miracle is one word for it.

I guess it depends how much you love dealing with yourself.

8. Well that’s a conversation.

Yet another one you probably never imagined having.

7. Probably time for one last call of your own.

You’re gonna need it to get through bedtime.

6. Who could stay mad at this face?

No one in their right mind.

5. Seconded and carried.

How could it be any other way?

4. And again at 5 am.

Or any other time of the day, randomly.

3. He’s just worn out from the water park.

Not that it helps you now.

2. Enjoy her not being able to spell while it lasts.

Then again, she probably wouldn’t care anyway.

1. Just in case you missed it.

It’s hilarious how they think we’re deaf.

 

I think whether or not you’re able to laugh depends on the day. Like, today, I wasn’t able to laugh that much. Because my kids were being monsters.

But Fridays… oh yes… that’s my laughing day.

Tell us your secrets for navigating a public tantrum down in the comments – we need tools!
