Raising kids is a wild ride—full of love, laughter, and, let’s be real, plenty of chaos. Between school runs and trying to remember what sleep feels like, parents barely catch a break.

But when they do, they love to share their little ones’ antics with the world. And where better to do that than on X?

If you’re a regular at Bored Panda, you know that each month we celebrate the funniest and most relatable parenting tweets out there. This time, though, we’ve gone all in, creating the ultimate “best of all time” edition from the ones we’ve featured before. Enjoy!

    Whenever my kids do this, I start by saying "mommy" at least 50 times, followed by an endless amount of requests. Works. Every. Time.

    My mum has twin girls (my sis and I.) when we were 11 she moved us in with her new boyfriend, who had 3 boys aged 10, 11, and 13 and much stricter rules than we’d ever had growing up. Eventually had 5 hungry, grumpy teenagers at the same time in one house including two very b****y teenage girls who were mad at having to follow new strict weird house rules they didn’t grow up with. It wasn’t pretty.

    I have told this tale before on BP but I will tell it again: One day, before Kindergarten, my daughter who was then aged 3 or 4, screwed her eyes up and stared at me before asking "Are you wearing any make-up today, Mummy?" and I said "Yes, darling, I am wearing a little bit" (I was knackered). And she shot back with "You need more". Ouch!

    I think there's a lot of confusion between 'invalid' and 'reasonable.' You don't have to agree that wanting the juice back in the orange makes sense to say something like, "I realize you're upset. Remember, when you're upset, you can... (insert whatever you want the kid to do to deal with frustration)." Adults also get frustrated and upset when the world doesn't work the way they want it to! The point of not 'invalidating' a kid's feelings is that there's no wrong emotion to have, but there are right and wrong ways to express it. And they hopefully become an adult who, for example, vents to a friend about their ex's new partner instead of keying their car.

    A family with boys makes me think of my favourite childhood book, The Great Piratical Rumbustification. My sister, who only has boys, confirms this. We have one of each with a bit of an age gap (4 years) and they cancel each other out mainly.

So if the kids want to go to the park but parent doesn’t want to, this gives them an excuse not to go. And they do it for each other, being brother and sister.

    I hated being woken up as a teenager. No explanation why. Nothing would fill me with more blind, hateful, pointless teenage rage than my mum popping her head into my room and telling me “good morning beautiful, it’s time to get up for school.” I have no idea what my problem was. It got to the point where I got up 15 minutes early on purpose every day just so I wouldn’t experience that rage. Being a teenager was so weird and annoying lol.

    I can proudly say 5+ years as I went to several educations on kids development and care, both healthy, in hospital and NICU. I am less proud to say that apart from the Heimlich manouver for toddlers (had chinese take away and a peanut was hidden in the rice), none of that helped me handling parental role, just jumped in the deep end. We had a lot of practise at dolls, totally wasted time. Should have made us pit diapers on angry octopuses instead.
