The Instagram account “Mom. Whine. Repeat” captures that beautiful chaos perfectly. We’ve rounded up some of their most hilariously relatable posts to remind moms that they’re not alone—and that there’s a whole community out there that gets it. Enjoy!

Summers are definitely shorter than when I went to school. The kids get out in late May and are back in early August. I guess that's easier on parents and the kids don't forget everything they learned the year before. But I do remember long days of just lollygagging around, looking for something to do.

When was the last time you did a slip and slide? Because I did one when I was like 35 after having a few kids, and let me tell you the bruises that I had the next day. It was like 10 slides tops, and I could barely walk for the next two weeks. Slip and slides are weird and they are definitely not for adults.

Our city sends parents letters with advice on the kid's development (about twice a year, only for the first kid). The article on siblings says "according to studies, most siblings spend about half of their time together playing". That set expectations straight: perfectly normal if they fight or argue 50% of the time.
Huddo's sister 5 months ago
My mum had a fifth child after the fourth (there were 7 years between her and the next youngest) so they would play together...the fifth was severely disabled and in a wheelchair. They were close, but couldn't really play the same things (my sister has ADHD so wanted active games). Meant my sister mostly fought with the next oldest brother, because he didn't want to include his little sister.
LakotaWolf (she/her) 5 months ago
I was adopted solely because my mother did not want my older sister (their biological child) to be an "only child". Unfortunately, my sister and I could not be more different from each other if we TRIED to be. We never got along as kids and we were never "friends". It also didn't help that my mother was abus!ve to me (in literally every way you can abùse a child) throughout my entire childhood/teen years, and when my sister got old enough (around age 12), she started joining my mom in abus!ng me. Good times. She's still abus!ve towards me to this day - she just doesn't dare the physical abùse any more, because she knows I would destroy her. It sucks. I hate when only children say "you're so lucky to have a sibling!" - no, no I'm not.

I spent my childhood being "Melanie's little sister" because no one seemed to be able to (or care to) remember MY name XD My sister and I were both in a singing/dancing group and the instructors seriously referred to me as that the entire time. I tried politely reminding them that my name is Crystal. Nope! "Okay, Melanie's little sister, go stand over there for your solo." Sigh XD I don't think my mother has ever called me by the wrong name, but she has never remembered my birth date (she only has two kids..) and she DOES continually call my pets by the names of my old pets who died 30 years ago.. >_>;
Huddo's sister 5 months ago
I've been called the wrong name by my mum, but not maliciously, she does the same with everyone. My username comes from the fact that even though he was younger than me, no one at school really knew me (quiet girl) so they just called me Huddo's sister. Then my sister got the same when she got to high school, before claiming Huddo as her nickname too.

Considering it's 15°C, yeah, I have to agree it heavily depends on if it's summer or winter. Winter 15C wants long sleeves and a regular puff jacket, while summer 15C wants a short sleeved shirt and a denim jacket. Weird isn't it?

LakotaWolf (she/her) 5 months ago
So I should force my livestock guardian dog indoors even though he doesn't WANT to be indoors? What if I had a border collie, an Aussie, or any other working breed? It's perfectly acceptable for dogs to be let outside. I personally don't leave either of my dogs outside overnight because we have urban coyotes (both my dogs are large-breed but I'm not risking it) but they absolutely WANT to go outside during the day. Forcing them to stay indoors would be cruel. Cats are a different matter - they should be indoors-only (or catio/harness-trained.) Too many predators, cars, etc. and they also decimate the bird/lizard population.
