My son will be back tomorrow from a holiday with his grandparents and for a few days it will be like my father moved in.

Moms and dads making fun of their struggles on Twitter isn't necessarily a bad thing, too. With school, housework, and the kids' after-school activities taking over their time, parents got a lot on their plate. It's easy to become socially isolated from the outside world when your everyday life is so hectic and make a mistake or two. Accepting and laughing at them allows them to move on.

Vicki Broadbent, for example, successfully juggles a thriving business with raising a family, and she said owning your hiccups is just a part of the journey. "When I mess up, I hold my hands up, admit it, and explain to my children what happened ('Mummy shouted because she was tired'). I also always apologize," the founder of Honest Mum and author of Mumboss, told Bored Panda."It's a strength, not a weakness to say sorry. Being honest about my failures with my children humanizes me as a parent and, most importantly, it normalizes making mistakes. They're a natural part of life and we're all learning and growing. I want my kids to know that while I'm teaching them the difference between right and wrong and the importance of empathy and forgiveness."

Vicki said that her family genuinely has a lot of fun. They sing, dance, watch comedies, and always strive to seek the positives in life. "We as parents don't take ourselves too seriously and laugh at ourselves so our children follow suit." Keeping a family together is a lot of work. But offers so much opportunity to have a good time, too, so why not use it?

"Having children is truly a gift," Vicki said. "It gives you as a parent a second chance at childhood. You can live vicariously through your kids; you can see the world anew through their young eyes, and best of all, you get to eat more candy (!) and lose your inhibitions more (I've been known to dance around the supermarket)! It's a maternal right to embarrass your kids, right!"

The mother is fully aware that having kids is a huge responsibility but like everything in life, she always questions herself, 'Am I having fun?'

"Childhood is a short and precious window to be enjoyed so we as parents must protect this time for our children and harness happiness where possible."

I was insane. My son's are 15 years apart. So by the time I had the wee one waking me up at awful hours pre-dawn, I'd just fallen asleep worrying about the older one getting home an hour or two earlier ;-)

It could be the curtains, sibling hair, cat whiskers, clothes, or many other fun, fun things.

When my 4yo is angry at her 6yo brother, she goes for "aaaaahhh you're annoying like an adult!" and it's a really serious offense considering his expression.

Squash the loo roll before you put it on the holder, so it doesn't spin freely, but sort of thumps. It makes it so much less fun to unwind it all, and stops it happening accidentally.

Omg so true! I have a VERY sarcastic father and a VERY passive-aggressive mother. I'm the least-liked person...EVER lol.

Never say "Don't do that", "Do not look there", "Do not touch this". The "not" is not perceived. Rather: "Do this instead", "Look over here", "Hey, did you see this (*pointing into the other direction*)".

Honestly I can’t see the point of preschool zoom. What would happen thats not detrimental to anyone involved? I have no idea how it would even work.

Anyone who can mute my son has some incredible super powers, wish they wouldn’t be greedy and share their mystical magic.

Try explaining the difference between read and read. And when to use it correctly in a sentence.

No, it becomes, "Well, now you're going to school in something else that might look pretty silly...Oh, you suddenly remembered where you coat is?"

but it is the silence after they fall over which is scary. They might just be powering up ready to scream or are completely fine
