45 Memes About Being A Parent That Hit Too Close To Home

Reminds me of a couple of photos of my brother at about 2. He still likes to dress up, but isn't so flamboyant in day to day life.

"Moms don't take sick leave. Moms take Aspirin"

Not a parent of human children, but I still feel like this way too often

Omg. Literally my exact life right now with an almost two year old. My older two are 11 and almost 14. I do NOT remember them being this crazy, hyper, or into EVERYTHING at this age. But I also worked ALOT back then cause I was a single mom, and now I’m a SAHM. I’d trade my fiancé in a heartbeat if I could honestly

I'm actually hoping this happens when I have kids (first due this July) because I do like chatting once I get started and talking about kids is much easier (I'm a teacher) anyway. Plus I don't want my kids to be as socially anxious as me.

I had it even without kids. Big part of my therapy.

That kid absolutely ruined Toy Story >.<

Thank GOD my toddler is exactly like me…. A night owl. It’s 4am here and he’s been asleep about an hour and a half now and will sleep till probably 2-3. 🙌🏻

*A* minute is not a countable number (of minutes). "One" minute is.

There was a woman on Reddit complaining about how often she has to shop for her kids' clothes only to be reminded most mom's actually buy clothes a bit big to forestall this.

... really ...

First day of kindergarten for my oldest. Youngest quietly playing with kitchen set in the room as we say our see-yas. Walking out to the car, youngest realizes she is not going to stay and begins throwing a turbo fit. My wife trying to shove her into the car, her hanging onto the rain gutter resisting, A cop drives by and is convinced he is witnessing some drama on his slow day and stops. Wife holds out the screaming, snorting, wild animal that is our daughter, and says "YOU WANT HER???" He slowly drives off.

"Walkies ! "

Or cat. I do this every time Charlie decides he must follow me into the bathroom.

Re-offer same dinner.

"Too long" in this case is 3 minutes.

This also applies to toddlers who suddenly decided they NEED to run full speed into the busy parking lot at the playground. Holy c**p that little girl was fast, so many times I barely snatched her up before she ran right into a moving car. At least I know my heart can handle that kind of sudden stress lol there were a few times she had it going so fast I thought it might pop. The middle child phenomenon is too real, girl is still absolutely feral and psychotic and she's ten now.

OMG I thought this was exclusive to my child.

I have had my glasses fixed three times in the last three years, because they were bent and missing a nose piece. Every time, I end up being hit by a ball kicked/thrown by my students the same afternoon.

My horrified daughter catching me giving my grandson, after awakening from a nap, chocolate covered raisins as he lays there waking up. "Nice, what is he the king now?"

This gave me flash backs of my mum yelling at my siblings 'how did you eat all the Shapes (savoury biscuits) already?!'
