Parenting is full of funny, chaotic, and heartwarming moments — and no one captures them quite like Adrienne Hedger, the cartoonist behind Hedger Humor. Through her relatable comics, Adrienne shows what everyday family life is really like, from kids’ hilarious logic to the challenges (and joys) of keeping things together.
As Adrienne says, “When things happen that annoy me or frustrate me, I think, ‘Wait, this is a comic!’ And then my anger turns to excitement because now I have a new cartoon idea.” Her lighthearted take on parenting has brought laughter to families everywhere — and these comics might do the same.

I once read a (supposedly) true story that went like this: Husband: That guy looks like uhm... Wife: I don't think he looks like him at all. Husband: .... wait... but how... Wife: You mean Van Leeuwen, and he doesn't look like him.
Beware of telling them "you'll go to school one day", they'll be cross the second day

thats me, staring at the (currently sold out) collectible figurine of my favorite pokémon before it comes back in stock. no i dont want to sign up with my email so you can notify me when its back in stock, i want to stare at the screen until its back
I love a good soak in the bath and I'm in this picture even though I'm in my late '60s
Fully agreed. If bath water stayed hot I'd probably never leave.

Our library switched cataloging systems a few years ago and the bosses were so concerned about our stress that they encouraged us to come in our PJs and bring a "comfort object" as we learned the new system. The only rule was we had to have a change of clothes if we were working the service desks later in the day.

My mom tried to teach me. That lasted for the time it took me to drive once around the block. We came back in and Mom tossed Dad the keys and said "YOU TEACH HER."
Yep. My friends know to follow up anything important (tasks, lunch dates, etc) with a text.
Walk out of the room then walk back in again - it's as close to "switch it off, switch it back on again" as a human can manage
Maybe a dumb question, but where does the clock go back an hour for daylight saving time?
Questions you *never* ask - #1 - "do you love me more than (X) ?"

Progress. The Delphic Oracle said "Know yourself" but never said "and make improvements"
I had this explained to me by a friendly Maths teacher (they do exist!). She got me to write out the problem - "The number I am looking for , plus 3 , equals 5. " Then "The number I am looking for equals 5 minus 3". Then "The number I am looking for equals 2". After a few of those we agreed that I would be allowed to write an "X" instead of "the number I am looking for", each time. I think OP's Maths teacher may have missed out that bit.
When someone shouts, "SCIENCE!" it sounds enthusiastic. When someone shouts, "MATH!" it just sounds angry. And when someone shouts, "ART!" it sounds like they hurt themselves.
Stare at any word for a solid minute and you'll notice this effect for yourself. It's sort of the opposite of 'recency bias'
When we're young we have health, free time but no money. When we're middle-aged we have health, money, but no free time. These two are *old* !
Move to Queensland. Stop wearing socks! (Honestly, I worked it out, and did exactly that!)
I stopped wearing socks without moving to Queensland.

Get the worst bit over with, then it has no more power over you. Eat the frog first.

And I was the 4th. I went to see Led Zeppelin aged 14. With one mate of the same age. My mother could never explain to me why she let me, I must have been VERY convincing (didn't lie or anything).
Like pancakes. I am my parent's first child, and I feel like 'the first pancake' is a pretty good descriptor of me 😄

Too many chiefs, too few people who just want to get the job done so they can watch TV
When I was growing up and at home, that is about the time my family ate dinner. Between 5:00-5:30.
same. when i told my friends about this they would always stare in wonder.

There has actually been a code added in emergency medicine for facial injuries caused by dropping your cell phone on your face.
When you push yourself hard, yourself pushes back. Isaac Newton found this out.
Independently of this cartoon, exactly *how* does anyone know they understand a thing?
OK, I'm not in the USA so maybe someone can explain how 'graduating' - which used to be a concept of reaching degree level at a University - has trickled down to pre-school ?
