Parenting is a gift that keeps on giving, whether in the form of joy, chaos, love, worry, painted pictures or ruined belongings; none of the above ever seem to end. This leads to a conclusion that there’s never a dull moment with kids, as most parents can affirm.
Quite a few moms and dads turn to Twitter to unveil just how colorful life with children can get. They let out everything from surprise to frustration in their often hilarious Tweets, some of which we have gathered on today’s list for you to enjoy. Scroll through the posts shared by parents just trying to make it through the month of May and see for yourself what situations present themselves while living with the little hell-raisers.

I hate cranky neighbors. We have a cranky neighbor too. The guy can't do anything as long as the dog pooped past his lawn.
That is normal for all kids. Very normal for ADHD kids for they sometimes lack focus, whilst other times there is hyperfocus. Every parent with an ADHD kid or ADD kid should know this. That is a big part of the whole diagnosis.
Mine would not help carry the shopping,but would gladly empty the fridge!
Why do they take 2-3 days telling me about their most recent dream but skimp on the interesting stuff? What kids find important astounds me.
Tried this, got a small rock thrown into my mouth. The small lizard she threw missed and fell onto the floor.
Listen here you little ship. I need like 4 days notice if things are going to start getting anything less than boring around here.
I like big box and I cannot lie, you other brothers can't deny
I enjoy watching things get power washed. It’s very satisfying to see the grime disappear
I really look forward to that time after they go to bed and before I fall asleep..all 7 minutes of it
My 17yo was not impressed by the fact that sus was used as abbreviation for suspicious long before Among Us.
ants do so have a smell. it smells really weird, like ... ants. no joke though they have a smell
Do not cite the Deep Magic to me, Witch, for I was there when it was written.
When my oldest was younger, we used to have to start putting her to bed an hour early because she had so many stuffed animals it took her that long to put her own "kids" to bed first. This one needs medicine.. this one needs a diaper change... this one needs her bottle... this one can't find his pjs....Fun times.
Ahh yes. TIL, a sandwich that was "facing the wrong way (?) Cannot possibly be eaten. Also, that I was a"terrible Mama" the day I could not turn the black grapes in the bowl, to green grapes. When I said "A famous guy once turned water into wine, but your Mama cannot turn black grapes into green grapes" my then 5yr old stopped crying and said "Does he live near here" Ummmmmm, no.
Got a bill at the end of the school year for a library book that was never returned. Asked daughter about it and she said "I took that book BACK! I remember because I hurried to the library and was almost late for practice and it would've been my third time so they would've kicked me out of the musical." I said fine and sent a check. Two weeks later I found it under her bean bag chair while cleaning.
We only had 8th and 12th grade grad growing up. 8th is cool tho because there is a lot of mental prep to get a kid ready for high school and the event made the transition feel real. Also came with tours of the high schools with long lectures about what is expected of you in the next 4 years.
✋🏼 3rd degree tear, but also inside tearing because he twisted on his way out. Then my original stitches didn’t heal properly resulting in a surgery a couple months later where I had to actually go under for in order to cut apart and restitch freshly cut skin back together. Aren’t you glad you asked? Oh wait, I forgot the latte ☕️ Cheers!
Years ago I was puttering around the house listening to music when my son comes barreling down the stairs and starts interrogating me on the song that was playing. "How do you know this song? Where did you hear it? This is new, how do you know it? Do you watch Vine, this is a Vine song!" He seemed rather offended that I had the nerve to listen to such a popular, "new" jam. I was listening to Enya 🙄 and the "new" jam in question was roughly 13 years old at that point.
Nooo I already feel bad enough for leaving to work (part time) 😭
That's what I do for the chick... I mean you never know, there could be a sudden rain, she could pee herself...
Pedro Pascal! I love this guy. Everything I have seen him in, he has a different look. Bingeing The Last of Us yesterday. Totally has the badass dad thing going.
Flip the fuse switch inside the fuse box. Then shout. OH, NO... Blackout.
I don't get why Americans give their kids so many time outs and groundings (German here). It doesn't seem to work, their kid's aren't any better behaved than the ones here, where grounding isn't used as often as in the US
I'm more unto audio books. Brandon Sanderson is the best if you like fantasy!
When my son wants to watch something on the TV: "Daddy, you need to watch YouTube!" At the weekend we went to a restaurant and my son went up to the bar "Excuse me", the lady behind the bar turns round and says hello. My son says to her "You look well" and then flounced off.
Hugging my 15 year old, he goes to pull away, I said, "I'm not done yet." He says back," You're so weird mom." 😑
My oldest is almost 20. He's starting to realize all I did for him as a kid. His hugs are starting to last a little longer now. So there's that for you to look forward to! They still think we're weird, tho
