Have kids, they said, it will be fun, they said. And when it happens, utter craziness ensues and there’s no emergency exit to go through.
You see, being a parent takes you on a life adventure like no other. And while it’s hard to put in words all the ups and downs of what it's like to raise little daredevils, Bored Panda wrapped up some real-life examples captured on camera that show it as it is.
Mostly absolutely wholesome, sometimes truly crazy, and in other instances, pretty challenging, parenting is not for the faint-hearted, but it surely fills up your heart unlike anything else.

No More Animals In The House
I wonder what the hamster's name is
Load More Replies...I mean thatâd make sense with the âwe are not getting anymore animalsâ part
Load More Replies...I am trying to imagine this and I wish I was there to see this.
What do ya bet they ended up with a hamster? heh heh
Ha this is so funny! I just imagine how many animals they had we have 13 parakeets 2 love birds 2 cockatiels (one of them is male he always hissing at anyone who comes near) 2 fishes that gave birth to live young and sea snails that lay 6 egg sacks a year đ a bearded dragon a duck and 6 chickens free eggs! There IS this one small adult that never grew we call her Midget Chicken she is special to us.
that sounds like so much fun lol! I currently have 4 cats, 2 old doggies, a turtle, a huge AF goldfish named shark, and a little fishy that lives with him, and my hamster! I love absolutely all of them and it's great to have them all

I'd love to see an Ai deal with a screaming baby with teething problems or an ear infection. I didn't sleep until my youngest daughter was 5 . I'm sure you'd get an error message after about 15 minutes!

She's Going To See A Cow Today
Mom needs to be careful what she says. You never know who might hear it! This is hilarious though.
I would recommend stopping to visit a field of actual cows first, for the sake of family harmony. Or even just find her a toy cow.
As a former child, I can confirm that a field full of actual cows (not grandmas) would make a childâs day. Although I am not talking any s**t about the power of a field full of grandmas, I could use that right now.
Load More Replies...YIKES! Foreseeable trouble ahead, swing by a farm so explanation at least sounds feasible to Grandma.
Fell out of my chair laughing! Watch out for the herd of grandmas tho!
Load More Replies...Yep, set up a case for plausible deniability.
Load More Replies...To find out more about the challenges of modern parenting, as well as how the coronavirus pandemic has changed the ways parents raise children, Bored Panda spoke with Holly Connors, a lifestyle blogger and a working mom of two girls. After working in psychology for a decade, Connors is now the creator of the “Simplify Create Inspire” project, which helps families make their lives easier. She happily shared some useful and illuminating insights.
Raising kids through the pandemic has posed a variety of challenges for many parents. Holly told us that for some, “it has resulted in increased stress and anxiety due to the uncertainties that come with the virus.”
“Parents have had to make tough decisions around safety, schooling, and childcare while all learning how to adjust their work-life balance. Some of these cautions have remained as parents adjust to the new normal,” she explained.
My Life Is Never Dull, Guys. Never
Iâm a Proffesionalâą Detective who will solve the case. As we can see here, there was a mysterious stick of butter found in the bed. Tests have indicated that the butter was eaten 1 hour ago. When questioned about the evidence, the suspect claimed to not have put the butter. This leads me to conclude that the child probably kept an Ouija board which accidently summoned a half eaten stick of butter. Case closed.
Load More Replies...I had 3 sticks of butter on the counter to get to room temperature, could not find them so i assumed I never set them out. Decided to bake less, so I put 2 more sticks on the counter. Come back, they are gone. My dog ate 5 sticks of butter.
:https://images.app.goo.gl/mhXLehHm1hrQoiey6: So in the US at least they sell boxes of sticks of butter. Each stick (normally, idk if they sell like giant ones at Costco) is normally 8 tablespoons, or half a cup (~120 grams). There's measurements on the wrapping too, which is helpful so you can just cut through the paper-ish wrapping with a knife. They sell tubs of margarine, and sometimes whipped butter. Tub of margarine: https://images.app.goo.gl/YZBSRFao83U3kkdx8 :
Load More Replies...My youngest cut her eye lashes because everyone kept commenting how beautiful they were, 23 years later and I'm still not sure if I know why! And she still has the most beautiful eyelashes lol!

Some Start Younger Than Others
"Witcherina" is far better, but 5-year-olds have so little sense of pizzazz these days.
This is why I donât want kids. How do you even deal with situations like this?
My family and I lived in Germany and so my parents picked up German phrases. One of them is Scheisse which means s**t. Me as a 13 year old said it thinking it meant like shot or something like that. I learned what it meant though.
scheiĂe (SHY-sse) means sh*t, but schieĂe (SHEE-sse) means shoot. so you were close!

The shadow doesn't match the figure shown in the inside view (mouth hugger). Definitely staged.

Yup. Mouth hugger figure with tape. Spider shadow, no tape.

A NOPE on a lamp shade would almost make me burn my house down too!
Moreover, many parents had to become teachers overnight, Holly argues, by helping their children adjust to temporary homeschooling or remote learning. “This has caused parents to address their children’s educational needs more than ever and for some parents, this has given a greater view of what goes into educating our kids and allowed them to maintain a more pivotal role in their children's learning.”

Hey. I used to bring my dad's electric pencil sharpener to school to protest the lousy wall-bolted sharpners we had that simply ate pencils, not sharpen them. It was such a good day.
I've had a student smuggle a live chicken more than once to school in his school bag. The same kid used to bring things out of his pantry like a can of pineapple rings, beetroot or an entire loaf of bread and condiments and proceed to eat them during class, set himself up and have a lovely time lol
My kindergartener snuck the hatchet my dumb brother gave him to his Show and Tell at school. I was mortified to be called at work and told to come get the "weapon" they had seized from my son. Did I mention that my brother is dumb?
Never mind the popcorn popper. If you and your husband have any sexual toys in the house, immediately put them under lock and key.

I havenât connected my kidâs Minecraft to the internet. I have it blocked. Heâs only 6, I wasnât ready for him to have contact with others online and donât really know how it works, if they can talk to each other, etc. But I imagine itâd be like consoling a kid who got their block tower or Lego build knocked over by other kids in real life. đ€·đ»ââïž But those builds can take HOURS and DAYS. Sounds rough.

As if that wasn’t enough, “the pandemic also limited the social life of many families, reducing time spent with extended family or friends.” Holly explained that this can be particularly challenging for younger children since they “rely heavily on social interaction with their peers and is most definitely one of the biggest challenges we found in our household with a child in their first year of formal schooling suddenly learning from home.”

My Sister Sent My 11-Year-Old Nephew To School Today With What She Thought Was A Fresca Packed In His Lunch
Bet the teacher was "less" than amused . . . . .you know what duds they can be
Load More Replies...Follow up on this one from OP on the Reddit thread: Nephew realized what he was holding and quickly stuffed it back into his lunch pail and then clung to it like his life depended on it for the rest of the day terrified the teacher would discover his apparent juvenile alcoholic tendencies. He made it, arguably unscathed, through the rest of the day without discovery. And then my sister put him (and herself) on blast on facebook.
So more sibling issues than parenting issues! đ€Łđ€Ł
Load More Replies...Not her fault but... My kids had dinner at their friend's house and told the mom that the juice tasted funny. She "knew" there was nothing wrong with it and my polite kids shut up and drank it. And that's how we found out where her alcoholic husband hid the alcohol. How on earth he thought it was a goid idea, we'll never know.

I remember when this song first came out. It wasn't that popular. Everyone had heard it but no one thought about it much. If you had told me it would be the subject of something that was popular in the 2020s, I would have thought you were nuts.

Load More Replies...“As a result,” Holly continues, “parents needed to become more creative in finding ways to keep their kids connected and entertained in the changed environment, with extra reliance on technology to fill the gap.” And although technology can be wonderful for this purpose, Holly believes that “it has also been harder to reign in those habits, now telling our kids to get off their devices and go spend time with peers in person again.”

Isn't praying before sleep and summon a demon pretty much the same thing? And I'm not even joking.
Do You Have The Ratio Of Syrup Per Vent? Asking For A Friend

With more and more things fighting for our attention these days, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed as parents. Holly argues that “we are all overstimulated and most of us are guilty of neglecting self-care.”
Luckily, she has some very useful advice to spare. “The simple act of taking time for yourself each and every day can have a huge impact, along with well-being basics such as getting enough sleep, eating well, drinking lots of water, and moving your body,” Holly said.
My 10-Year-Old Nephew Told His Mom He Doesnât Know How His Phone Broke. He Just Woke Up And It Was Like That. A Few Days Later She Finds He Posted This On Youtube
Bless those little morons for having no concept of evidence and consequences.
Ahh this reminds me of an old job of mine. Working complaints for a police force. youâd every now and again get someone most annoyed and try to profess their innocence, saying it âdefinitely wasnât them that did itâ and theyâre unhappy about being arrested etc. etc. But whilst in the process of giving the backstory to their complaint, accidentally confess to doing said thing they previously adamantly denied đ woops. Probably should have thought your story out better before confessing on a recorded line lol
Load More Replies...I understand itâs a different world with cell phones and TikTok/YouTube, but ffs you dumba$$es, stop recording your stupidity and posting it. Stupid criminals, feel free to keep posting your evidence
That is why 10 year olds do not need these kinds of phones, they are too young and don't understand the concept of $$$ phones. Get them flip phones so they can call home and text their friends.
Not trying to be combative but when was the last time you bought a smartphone? If you aren't obsessed with iPhone or chasing the very latest Android models, you can easily get cheap ones for no more than $20-30. And even the $50 models do most of the same things the higher end ones do.

Load More Replies...Another tip from Holly for overwhelmed parents is “setting up routines and schedules in the family home can also make a big difference in managing the overwhelm.” She gave some examples: “a cleaning schedule to keep on top of your regular household management tasks, a meal plan so you know what is for dinner each day and can streamline your grocery shopping and giving your kids age-appropriate chores to lend a hand around the home.”
Importantly, kids who do chores are gaining independence, responsibility skills, and confidence, Holly said.
And finally, “it can also be helpful to practice gratitude and mindfulness each day, as these techniques have been proven to help reduce stress and increase happiness,” the author of “Simplify Create Inspire” said.
Two-Year-Old Daughter Bathes Daddy's Laptop In Soap And Water Because It's "Too Dirty"
This image hurts my soul⊠she had good intentions but I feel so sorry for her dad.
I'm not buying this one. Looks too set up. He probably could have stopped her if he had put his phone down.

What a sweetie, feel sorry for the dad but the little girl had sweet intentions. I bet she thought she was helping cleaning. I would have cried and then later in laughed my head off. What a story to tell at her 16th birthday or on her wedding day.

My 3yo nephew did this to a bowl of plastic fruit. Bit into every. single. one. My mom keeps the bowl for the story.
We also wondered if there are new parenting trends and styles emerging, and Holly said that the ongoing impact of the global pandemic has certainly changed the way many parents approach parenting.
“We are seeing a shift in priorities, with more focus on family time and mental health for all members of the household,” she said.
“Many parents are also reevaluating their views on education, looking for alternative approaches to learning such as homeschooling that may better suit their children or taking the leap and traveling as a family, and digging deep into exploring their home country (or abroad),” Holly concluded.

I look at the picture and it makes sense, and then I try to explain it and it suddenly seems impossible.

9-Year-Old Decided He Wanted To Make Ramen Today. Narrowly Escaped The Worst Cup Of Tea Ever
Played With The Stamp Pad Ink And Now The Ink Is Hard To Remove
Yup, or even alcohol wipes if you don't have rubbing alcohol (had a pen explode in a shirt pocket and that's what was in my travel kit). :)

I Turned My Back For One Second And My Son Decided To Make An Omelette
Kids Got A Ball Filled With Goo For Christmas. We Now Know What That Goo Is
This is why slime, silly putty, and goo, of ANY kind, are PERMANENTLY banned in my house...
I Was Going To Surprise My Kids With A Bag Of Churros
Not How I Thought My Day Was Going To Start, And No It Wasn't The Puppy That Did This
8-Year-Old Remembered To Take The Foil Flavor Packet Out. She Forgot To Add Water
At least she remembered the foil packet. Better burnt noodles than fried microwave.
Yep, my kid did this, too. With a cup of microwave mac'n'cheese. That was several years ago, but to this day, I still always ask his 14-year-old Ă ss if he remembered to add water! đ
The Kid Decided To Open The Door By Kicking It
My sister (age 7) was trying to open our door (same type.) I (age 5) ran to keep it closed and went through it. All that she said to me in front of my mum was, I told ya so.
My Friend Just Sent Me This Picture Of A Pumpkin Pie She Made For Thanksgiving That Her 3-Year-Old Snuck Into
Toddler Pulled The Cat Feeder Down. I Just Filled It Out Last Night
I can feel each and every one of these... My younger son has ADHD, he's fast as lightning, has ZERO impulse control and NO regrets! I wouldn't be surprised if he'd done any of these in fact he has, quite a few to be exact. There is NO such thing as enough surveillance with that boy short of staring straight at him without blinking. Added with the fact that he has motoric restlessness so he's almost never ever silent nor still, and I myself am hypersensitive to noise so I quite often am forced to wear bluetooth hearing protectors indoors just so I don't go completely cuckoo and have a total meltdown. Nine years old and only getting worse and yes we've tried everything.
My Daughter Roughly Handled The Bag Resulting In The Lid Popping Off The Soup
My Youngest Brother After My Mom Shouted At Him For Getting A Detention
When You Add Seasoning Too Early In The Cooking Process (Magic Sarap = MSG)
This must be staged, right? There is no way on earth you'd just stand there and take a picture ???
Here's a good idea...take pictures of your kid killing the fish instead of stopping him. Neither of you deserve pets
why the eff are you taking a picture of him in action, instead of protecting the fish?
I Bought My 13-Year-Old Son An Oculus. He Turned Off Guardian Mode And Bought Us A New TV
My cat ordered dog food and a magnesium supplement off the reorder display on my echo show.
Who Said This Parenting Thing Was Difficult?
I came here and scrolled down through each and every one to make myself absolutely sure that cat is a correct life choice for us ;p
This post reminded me why I’d make a bad parent, my anger would’ve gotten in the way first and I would’ve treated my kids like how I was treated growing up
More evidence we were all jerks at some early stage of our lives
I’m so glad that most parents/society have changed in their views towards corporal punishment of kids. I would have gotten actually beaten by my mother for doing any one of these things. XD (I was a naughty kid, so I got hit quite a bit.) my sister thinks I’ll be sad when my mom dies. Ha, nope! Hopefully these parents have better ways of dealing with their kids and they’ll have good relationships with them :)
I was thinking the exact opposite! I was spanked a few times (never after the age of three) and that was enough to make me never pull any of this shït. Accidents happen of course, but this collection of out-of-control kids and anger management problems is insane!

Load More Replies...When I was 4 I wanted to help my dad who was sanding something in the garage, so I sanded his car. I still remember his face when he saw me 😁
My younger sister did, too. She bounced up like nothing happened. I was screaming for my mom, and by the time Dad made it outside, my sister was up, running around like nothing happened. No broken bones, no concussion. I think my mom had an out-of-body experience.
