The UN health agency chief expressed optimism during a press briefing on Wednesday that 2022 may be the year the world ends the acute stage of the COVID-19 pandemic. That’s a big bet. A bet on which our sense of normalcy, something we took for granted in the pre-pandemic life, relies.

Speaking of parents, the prospect may sound like a savior. You see, dealing with kids in all this chaos proved to be a whole new kind of challenge. It left moms and dads continually sleep deprived, it turned them into stay-at-home teachers, made homes children’s playground and ruined not just one or two video conferences.

So no wonder Bored Panda’s monthly list of the funniest parenting tweets is one of the most awaited posts for many readers. After all, parents’ tweets have an endless source of inspiration thanks to these cheeky little daredevils who may bring some misery now and then, but even more happiness. Psst! Don't forget to check out more of the funniest monthly parenting tweets in our previous posts here, here and here.

    I am in a wheelchair permanently. One kid I came across in the street didn't really get why I needed that wheelchair. So to make it a bit easier I explained it as my wheelchair is a stroller for adults who can't walk :-)

    My wife's brother once got very drunk, vomited copiously all over his room then proceeded to hoover up the mess (or attempt to). Which was fine until about a day later when the hoover began to REALLLLY honk. In the end, not even a bag change could save the thing and it had to be binned.

    That's actually why it was invented. It was originally designed by a female socialist to be played two different ways. You were supposed to play it communally first, and then the monopoly way. The point was to show that the first way was better for everybody, and that the second way was terrible for everybody except for one person. The game was so popular people would make their own boards at home to play with their friends. When Hasbro bought the rights from her, they changed the rules. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2015/02/15/business/behind-monopoly-an-inventor-who-didnt-pass-go.amp.html

    It was very hard to convince me that "butte" is pronounced "beaut". I'm 17 now and I'm still not entirely convinced; my American Literature teacher even recently showed us a link from Butte College and had to inform us all that it is not pronounced "Butt College".

    Actually, teaching kids that 'sharing is caring' is problematic. It can lead to them doing things they don't want to because they feel obligated, and get in the way of consent.
