Many posts and even books tell you how glorious and fulfilling it is to raise children. The reality is, though, that you’re often vomited on, have literally zero spare time, and are haunted by dragging insomnia, and this is just the beginning of the list. Sincerely, we absolutely sympathize with you.
So, do you feel like throwing a party every time your kid finally goes to sleep at night? Do you dread the thought of having to move your child’s car seat into another car? Is parenting your children akin to dealing with a pack of Velociraptors? If you find yourself nodding wildly to any or all of the above, we invite you to take a look at this list of hilarious “parenting is hard” memes we’ve compiled for you. Have a good laugh, and don't forget to vote for the funniest memes!

Funny Parenting Memes Can Help You Through The Day
While producing a decent human being from scratch is nothing short of a heroic act, you don't have to be super serious about it all the time. Laughter and funny memes about parenting can make even the worst situation seem easier. Everyone who’s going through a process called parenthood will find parenting memes funny and totally relatable.
It may seem to you like no one is going through the same stuff you do, but you’ll be surprised to find out how many people have had or are having the exact same experience trying to force their children to eat vegetables or wear a decent pair of pants when they go outside.
Reading about your troubles through someone else’s humorous perspective can help you see that it’s not, after all, all that terrible. Maybe next time your child has a meltdown over their broccoli touching their mashed potatoes on the plate, you can turn it into more “parenting is hard” memes to make other parents feel better.
Moving A Sleeping Baby
this is extremely accurate. Could never get my nephew down in his crib, he always just ended up sleeping on my boobs. I held in many a full bladder so he could get a nap in!
Sleep Is For The Weak
You also haven't dressed up in so long you have no idea what the current style is.

Is It Okay to Tell Parenting Jokes?
Like with any other type of jokes, balance is key. If you know someone who’s going through the general hurdles of parenting, funny mom memes or dad memes might offer them the necessary tension release they need to carry on.
On the other hand, if the person in question is going through some serious stuff as a parent, it might not be the time for joking. Save the “parenting is hard” memes for later and share them once you feel they have the bandwidth for some parenting jokes.

Haha!! Her look totally says it all. She's like "Are you sure you wanna know?"
Mom! Mom! Mom! Mommy!
But it's still so sweet, after they're grown ups, to hear them say "Hi Mom!" or text you like "Hey Mom, what's the recipe for that awesome (insert food here) you make?" <3 We do - but hearing *Mom* never gets old.

You Don't Know Exhaustion
That`s why I think I`ll never have kids. If it`s a tiring job you do mainly at home, it`s not for me. I barely stand homework and housework, I don`t need screaming kids.

25 years later, I still suspect that my mom threw out my green Pound Puppy.... She denies it, but she won't look me in the eyes when she does :p

When I was a kid none of our things were allowed in moms room. Anything we left in there was immediately taken away and either thrown out or given away. The reason behind that was that as punishment we were sent to moms room; no toys, no tv, no entertainment. We could take a school book or homework, but nothing fun. If we had no school work we were to write a letter explaining why we were wrong. All the gods help you if you were a smartass about it.

My parents don’t have to worry about that, they have a ten yo with a phone (me) and a 7 yo with Among Us (my sister) and we are pretty obedient when it comes to bedtime

This one is a lie. I literally spend a whole day taking care of my fever ridden mother. The next day she accuse me of pouring water on her. I had to change her shirt 4 times.

My parents have been making me and my sister clean our rooms and do at least little housework since the age of 5. I must say that we at least do something. I don`t understand why parents don`t tell the kids firmly to clean their room.

I'm a mother of 1, yet I don't listen to the advise of my mother, because it's not good. Why would I put bubble wrap around my child, just because he falls every now and then while playing!

My mom told me that when I was a baby, she'd take a cheap shower curtain and put my high chair on it. That way, she could take my mess with her. Then again, she was a server, so she knew the struggle and how much she despised people who just left their giant messes without even trying to clean up a little and barely tipping.

Not true. Holidays are the time that I can exist with my kids without screaming, by not sobbing, or having a break down. Holidays are golden time when I'm not desperately trying to get them out of the house, on time and in a presentable state. I can enjoy them and BE with them. Pyjamas and unwashed teeth- who cares, it's the holidays. Am I wrong?

Um, I'm an insomniac teen, buy sure, I can't be that tired! I must be crazy!

I am looking at these cuz I’m bored, this STUPID pandemic is keeping me in my room 24/7 and even though I can leave my room, I choose not to
look forward for this day to tell the world about the the great powers of Dr.akpada This great man called Dr.akpada was able to bring back my lover who left me before within the space of 48hours and since then my love life have been more lovly and peaceful than i ever had. You can also strengthen your relationship or get your lover back by contacting Dr.akpada on (akpadatemple@hotmail com) or whatssap +27732331494 and i assure you that you will get a better relationship ...
Promises can easily be made but can not be easily fulfilled, This was the first thing that crossed my mind when Dr akpada told me that he was going to bring my lover back to me within 48 hours. But i must say that i was shocked when i receive a call from my lover and she apologies for leaving me and begged me to take her back. These are among the benefit you get when you contact Dr akpada through these contact details via (akpadatemple@hotmail com) or whatssap +27732331494
I can related to my students and teachers as I am still single. And I laughs as some of those pics all really related to them too
200* (not just 10+)... [Put Tony Stark rolling eyes meme here with "Trying to get at the end of it but have to lock phone over a dozen times before ever reaching the end over an hour later"]
it's not that funny... i don't want children if it's going to be like this :(
