30 Top Parenting Posts From This Month That Will Leave You In Stitches
Raising kids can be exhausting with all the things that adults already have to take care of. Imagine trying to juggle your work and social lives while trying to feed, bathe, and entertain a tiny human. Even though parenting comes with its own rewards, it doesn't hurt to vent your feelings online every now and then. Many moms and dads share their hilarious mishaps on social media to let others know they are not alone. It’s okay to burn a piece of toast, have a messy room, or sneakily eat a snack without your kid seeing it. The Bored Panda team is back with some of the best parenting posts from X this month. Some of them are too relatable, and others are painfully funny. So sit back, relax as you read through, upvote your favorites, and don’t forget to comment with your own thoughts below.

I kinda feel bad for any parents who dealt no only crying children but stranger who think the kids are taken away.

😂 this sounds perfect, to be honest. Not for dad, but everyone else in the house might benefit from a “break” buddy

Heh, yeah. If my mom REALLY wanted to punish me, one of our pets would suddenly disappear forever. If she wanted to punish me at a "regular" level, she'd destroy one of my favorite toys in front of me. If she only wanted to punish me a little, she'd just hit me with whatever she happened to have in her hand at the moment. Childhood was .... not a good time for Little Lakota.

Grew up with 3 sisters. Nail varnish was a regular occurrence. I liked the cool feeling it gave when being applied. And I enjoyed chipping away at it later in the day.

When I was a small child, I considered legally changing my middle name to "Danger" once I turned 18, because of how awesome I thought the "Danger is my middle name!" phrase was. Plus my middle name is "Joy". XD Once I hit 18, I didn't care as much. But still, young me thought it was awesome XD

We used to play kiss chase in my primary school, but not properly, none of us really had the guts to actually kiss anyone - it was more like tag. One of the girls I knew, though, would aggressively chase down the boys she liked and force them to kiss her, even when they were vehemently protesting. Kiss chase soon got banned.

Heh heh :-) Both of our kids started speaking late and we were always like "come on, you can say it" and now we're "OH PLEASE JUST GET TO THE POINT ALREADY"

I didn't get why my grandad was so obsessed with his chair, it was really comfy but still. Now I get it.

I moved to college with a suitcase and a footlocker. At the end of the year it took my parent's full-size van to get me home. (and I still left the footlocker in summer storage as school)

He's right you know? I don't think people realize how much energy it takes just being. Just taking care of ourselves alone is a lot. Peeing, wiping, brushing, grooming, dressing, undressing,cleaning, and showering. There's really no such thing as lazy. All of us who exist have to take care of ourselves, something else, or someone else and it's a lot. That's Not including working 40hrs a week on top of it. So this kid gets it and it is indeed a lot!

And whenever I wake up I'm like: "Oh, no. Not again. Just five more minutes."

"You know what else is hot? ME" my Kid, now 10, has been saying this for years now. When asked he didn't really know what "hot" actually meant.

I know it's "ha ha how funny" but if this story/attitude is even based in truth - maaaybe don't have 4 children if you aren't going to make time to teach them basics like tying their shoes? :/

show this kid a human skeleton, point out the tailbone, and you've got a dad joke running for life. Until they learn about human evolution.

However, they are a child, and for a good while, they're not going to understand that they're being an a*****e, so...

You DON'T? That's when my mom starts cussing. Even (especially) if we're doing our best to hurry.

Why can't your husband/partner help? Is this a prequel to the post where he takes a photo of the three kids in their matching outfits, which seemed sweet when I saw it but now im wondering if that was the only thing he did for you as you seemed so surprised by it? Why am I so invested in this random twitter post?

I'm raising my child (not yet old enough to talk) in a non-English speaking country. I'm studying their language, but I'm not particularly gifted. I have several worries about language barrier - communicating with teachers, for example. A trivial thing that I'm worried I'll miss out on are some of the gems that have appeared on this list. Side-note - the daycare staff say that her nonsensical toddler ramblings, despite not being actual words, sound English in tone. Apparently the way she speaks is clearly different from the rest of the kids there.

I was born in the fifties, my mom raised me with the Dr Spock book. When I was a teen, I asked her why that poor book was held together with rubberbands, she said she used it to beat my a*s and that's why I'm still alive today.
