39 Painfully Funny Tweets That Prove Pool Time Is Not As Relaxing When You Bring Kids

"ruined the day for everyone but my family" is a weird flex

Reminds me of how I keep from getting someone in in airline middle seat.

You have trained your child well.

Big brain

Can I become your apprentice ?

Okay?

BS. Your kid didn't say any of that.

My favorite one so far 😂😂

I like this one. Get em excited about that relaxing.

And 5 minutes later they forget about being fancy.

It’s more unfortunate for the frog than it is for the kids

No s**t! Wait, exactly, s**t!

When my brother and I were kids we spent every day of summer holidays at the city pool. No need to check the weather, it was always warm before the climate went nuts. First at the gate when they opened and stayed extra half hour past closing time until we got kicked out - the lifeguards knew us and graciously pretended not to see us until they were ready to lock up and go home. And it still didn’t feel like enough. Last day of pool before school started felt like the world ending.

Blue lips and all!

I used to take repeated deep breaths and then float face down, I found it very relaxing. Grown ups, not so much.

My brother, I will never forget when some poor lady stepped on him, the screams.........

Now that I think about it I did this all the time and never once got checked on.

This was me. My dad made me and my sister our own baby aqualung out of a gas canister. It was about knee-high on an adult, so it was aqualung size on our little girl frames. We'd just lie on the bottom of our pool, using his weight belt to keep us down, and buddy-breathe until it ran out. As we got bigger we did it with a full-sized aqualung.

Wow! So cool buddy! Now Mommy's gonna talk to Trisha for a bit, okay? Maybe Daddy wants to see your awesome tricks.

The sooner kids learn that hardly anything they do is actually impressive, the better.r

EVERY kid's anthem.

Summer anthem?! That's my kids life track

Gotta where sunglasses so they can’t tell you’re not actually looking at them

They just take pool safety very seriously and know all children in the pool should be watched constantly

To be fair, if you wear socks in the pool you probably won't get any sex.

Also, no damn sex in the pool!

This could mean one or the other, depending on the kid 😄

I mean, you go to a pool and tell kids not to get your hair wet? And you think you're NOT the problem?

Face it, if you don’t wanna get splashed, you shouldn’t bring kids to the pool 😂

Definitely opt. 3) "Wanna leave, wanna leave"....."Okay, we go home" .... "Don't wanna go, wanna swim, don't wanna go ... you can't make me go home....."

First 1) then 2)

Well, that is very much what a 7 yo does when being asked this question.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

Battery powered inflator: $30 Not getting lightheaded, almost passing out, and giving yourself a pounding headache: priceless

"inner tube"? you mean "doughnut"?

My dog does the same. Any time I go under water, she freaks out, jumps in the pool, makes really loud whining noises, and swims over.

Totally my dad. We used to fight over who got to swim with him piggy-back into the deep end.

No sharks in mine....usually just frogs

How dare the water be wet!

Sounds perfectly reasonable, actually

Nahhh, if she screams, "Next time I will cut you", I would consider outside help.

Only if you're the one expected to retrieve them every time.

Only if you have a 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1 as well.

That's why we get my 2 year old niece to rate them. The 8 and 10 year old try to impress her and she yells out whatever number she just remembered in no particular order.

Well we sure as hell can't rely on anyone old enough to have been to a dermatologist and gotten a biopsy.

Seems to work for the most part
