Parenting is a wild ride, full of moments that can leave you laughing or questioning your sanity. Luckily, this September, moms and dads on X (formerly known as Twitter) have once again proved that humor is the ultimate survival tool.

From the chaos of getting kids ready for school to the hilarity of toddler logic, we collected the best posts they made this month to solidify that if you're trying your best, one way or another, everything is going to be okay.

Continue scrolling to check them out as well as the chat we had with our parenting expert, Vicki Broadbent.

    My sister-in-law is like that. She thinks the smoke alarm is a timer.

    Since September is back-to-school season, we reached out to Vicki Broadbent, mother of three, award-winning TV broadcaster, and the woman behind the popular family lifestyle blog Honest Mum, to learn more about this period.

    "The transition from summer to the new school year is usually a shock for all of the family," she told Bored Panda. "We've gone from a more relaxed routine during summer, often with more time with our children to greater structure ... , [with] earlier bedtimes and often moody children who struggle initially to adapt to change (we as parents are likely to be moody too)."

    Of course, everyone's different, but Broadbent said, "It usually takes four weeks or so to form new habits, so before you know it, you and your children will be thriving again by the time the next school holiday arrives and the cycle begins again, albeit less dramatically!"

    According to a survey from this summer, moms and dads are increasingly worried about many aspects of the back-to-school season—from ensuring that school requirements are met, affecting 49% of parents, to safety and security concerns for 46% of parents.

    However, the number one cause of back-to-school stress for 51% of parents is the cost of everything their kids need.

    "I think easing into a routine gradually towards the end of the summer helps my kids not feel so surprised, so bedtimes return to usual more easily as they start going to bed earlier two weeks before," she explained.

    Whenever I hired a new employee, sometime near the end of the first day I'd call them down to my office. Of course, they'd always be worried like 'what did I do?'. But as soon as they'd come in the door, I 'd say "You're not in trouble! I just wanted to tell you [some compliment about their performance no matter how small]". Then I'd give them one small thing to work on and tell them I would help if they needed. It was important to me that they knew I meant it when I said we're on the same team and this really helped establish that.

    Yep, learned fast to call the parents "Hi, all good, I'm the religion teacher, no big problems, you kid just opened up half his knee, but now the blood stopped and he wanted to talk to you". Making the kid talking to the parent was the best way to keep everyone calm.

    Here, most of the parents stay until the kids are about 7 or 8, then it really just depends on how far the drive is. Sometimes they book the parties in the next city, about 45mins away...and the parties are only 2 hours long, so no point leaving and coming back.

    "So not A-N-N or A-N-N-E?" Most names have some variation in spelling, or you can say "I thought so - I just got a new collegue at work, and she pronounces it the same as you, but spells it with a U/K/X/etc."

    Same thing when they grow up and graduate from high school. You see Taylor's mom in the grocery store, but even though you've known and talked to her for the past 10 years, you have no idea what her first name is. So, you just say "Hi! How are you? What's Taylor up to these days?". That seems to work out fine.
