If we were to look at numbers alone, it would be clear that James Breakwell is one of the most popular family content creators on the internet. With over a million followers on Twitter alone, his stuff reaches people from all over the world. But as impressive as it is, the size of his fan army isn't the reason why we at Bored Panda adore him so much. It's Breakwell's actual material that sets him apart, which is unlike the recycled pseudo-inspirational clickbait you so often see on parenting blogs. Take his tweets for example. Sharing snippets from the conversations he has with his daughters, James paints a funny and sincere picture of his household, and you don't need to have kids to enjoy them. His humor is universal.

Ok, the food could of been so delicious that they got full eating it, so they weren't hungry anymore, but they cooked a lot of the food so there is some left over.

Yup, if I didn't turn them into a completely different meal, I had to wait at least 1 day to serve it again. Son (28) still hates eating the same food 2 meals/days in a row. Mom & MIL helped me learn to get creative, & plan ahead for 2 different meals from the same food. Not being even close to a domestic goddess meant a huge learning curve. 30 years later, I have no idea how to cook for only 2-3 people now! 😆 I freeze a lot of plated meals for lunches, when nobody wants to cook, to stretch the food budget till payday, or give my "adult" kids food to help them out.

If I were married with kids, I’d probably be the one to take it literally and explain why my family and I are having leftovers for dinner.

When I was a kid my mom would tell us "you'd better eat it, because it's going to keep showing up until you do!"

    We managed to get in touch with James and he was kind enough to tell us more about his family.

    "I would describe my parenting style as one of loving neglect," the dad explained to Bored Panda.

    "I’m the opposite of a helicopter parent. I’m more of an observe-from-a-safe-distance parent. That way, my kids develop a sense of independence and learn from their mistakes, all while I’m outside the blast zone."

    I hear that. Broke my toe on my pajamas. Was bent over loading a laundry basket full of dirty clothes to take to the washing machine. Stood up, with the basket in my hands, and the toe next to my big toe got caught in the hem of my pajama bottoms. Toe got pulled up, then back in an instant. I heard the little "crick" as the toe snapped. Who knew such danger lurked in a pair of comfy pajamas?

    Breakwell thinks it may have been his own folks who shaped him as a father.

    "My own parents were very laid back. They never pressured me in any way, yet I excelled at many things. I also failed—hard—at an exhaustive list of activities," he said.

    "My mom and dad gave me the freedom to figure out who I was and what I wanted to do. That’s a large part of the reason I’m a comedy writer today. So basically they ruined my life."

    When my niece was 5, she was taught about money, saving it and earning it. She gave toe and foot massages for 25 and 50 cents for 1 minute! Ha ha ha! Her time limit on all massages was 5 minutes! I've never had so many toe massages and and extra minute for 25 cents more! That was a fun time!

    Smart kid, love it! Much more wholesome than when I was a kid in the '60s-'70s. My parents were in a band, so we had lots of parties, some involved poker, most were just lots of drinking and singing. I was 10 and charged everyone a quarter a drink, including my Mum and Dad, and made a small fortune over the years, lol!

    The serial killer in a hockey mask doesn't use a chainsaw. Jason Vorhees wears a hockey mask, and he slays with a machete. Leather Face uses a chainsaw, from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. He does not wear a hockey mask; he wears a mask made from the flesh of his victims.

    Humor, however, is what ties evertything together. "Jokes keep me sane," James said. "A terrible disaster just makes for more content. For example, this week, my appendix ruptured and I nearly died. It made for a great newsletter."

    But that's just scrathing the surface. If you are interested in hearing the resr of it, you can subscribe to James's newsletter at jamesbreakwell.substack.com. "It’s the best way to learn more about my parenting style and my occasionally exploding organs," he added.

    The trick is to utilize the entire surface area of the arm in this situation. My parents have five dogs. All except for one of them lose their minds when I walk in the door trying to say hello to me. I've developed this technique to be inclusive so that nary a canine feels left out. Just circle your arms around them in a large sweeping motion that way you can touch four dogs at one time.

    My cat when I was a kid, loved her foot massages! She would come lick my toe, then begin to rub up and down my foot, scratch his face on the other toes, and sit really close to get his chest rubbed. He was a smuggler but didn't like to be held. Snuggled was on his terms, like bedtime and nap time. He'd slide u dear the covers and lay his head on my pillow and I could put my arm around him. Or, his favorite thing, snuggle my head! He'd curl around my head and purr in my ear! I miss him.

    Before I finished reading I thought..still has two feet! Or, one dog on lap for snuggles and two hands. My gran was a professional dog breeder for 50 years. Often there would be between 20-30 puppies, plus her adult 8-12 dogs. Good times!

    I had the 11-year-old grandson yesterday and told him I felt ill, so he made me toast and coffee without my asking. Good lad, but I hid it deep in the bin cos I didn't have the heart to tell him I felt too ill to eat it.

    My youngest was having huge problems with that last school year. She was the only one doing anything, so I gave her permission to stop being the group martyr. She ended up with a C and salvaged her self respect.

    Why do teachers even still do it if they aren't going to grade the group aspect as in the equal division and actual doing of the labor? I'll be honest, as a substitute, I was truly evil. If I had a group project in the syllabus,I was going to assign people who would accomplish that project, not one person per group to unwillingly drag five others and end up doing it themself. I was hugged once for this. I really was

    And then I know some of them won’t, so I have to do more because of my control issues. I was supposed to do 2/3 of a project (I knew my partner) and she only did 1/3 of her work and complained of boredom during class. So I did some of hers and it didn’t get finished but I don’t think our teachers noticed.

    Your daughters sound especially smart! Must be paying close attention to what you said and your wife said. So very sorry their mother is not in the picture, but as they grow up, you will see her everywhere in them! And they will get smarter, sassier and you will simultaneously, be angry, frustrated, happy, sad, proud as the day is light, in them as people, young women of consequence, and that they will be able to handle any verbal confrontation with a boy, forever! I can tell you now, YOU GOT THIS! As the oldest of 4 girls, sometimes we all take the lead, one at a time, we act the youngest, we are all fierce, and funny and when we get together at the same time, we are fierce and have the best time! Even if we still do argue! We a,ways finish a conversation with " I love you!" And work out our issues. We say sorry and mean it, and try very hard, not to hurt each other's feelings. We have now lost both parents, and we are closer than ever, and they are, my best friends and sisters!

    I had a horse that seriously wanted pizza. Any kind of pizza. - sausage, mushroom, green peppers, onions, pineapple, ham - any topping at all. I asked my vet about this. She didn’t believe me until he devoured a slice while she was at the barn. No other horse was interested in a taste of the same pizza. She said that he didn’t seem to have any ill effects, and it wasn’t like I had him on a pizza diet. She couldn’t recommend it as a regular thing, but he never seemed to have a problem from the occasional treat. Odd especially in that wheat is not usually fer to horses, nor dairy. I wouldn’t make a habit of feeding pasta, but maybe it’s more OK than I would have said, before I met that one horse.-found on quora from Kathleen schmmit.

    Depends on the horse! They have quirky likes and dislikes just like humans. My horses love black licorice sticks....the soft, chewy kind. Speaking to a friend one day near my horse, I was waving an opened 1lb. pkg of licorice around for emphasis when I felt a tug. He had grabbed the entire lot from the packaging and sucked it into his (big!) mouth. He enjoyed every bit. Called the vet, and he just laughed. "Won't hurt him" he said. And it didn't. 💁‍♀️🐎

    Did you hear that, George R. R. Martin? You don't want to do a Robert Jordan, and write so slowly that you die before you finish and somebody else has to finish your series! PS. not complaining - I think that Brandon Sanderson did an amazing job and really managed to capture Jordan at his best.

    A Wheel of Time might've been the preferable way to go. I read an article where Martin basically said that if he died tomorrow, the rest of A Song of Ice and Fire would die with him because he didn't have all his ideas backed up or a designated ghost rider. So I really hope we're not straight up screwed.

    The best thing about reading, is when you discover a book series already out and you need to read about 12 books to get to the present in the series! I always think it is wonderful and it makes me giddy, to know I have books to read, that I know I willlove, because I read book 1 and there are now 12 more to read!

    I worry about that exact thing a lot more than is probably reasonable. My favorite author has promised several more books in my favorite series, but it was four years between the last book and the previous one. Other than obviously wishing good things upon him, I'm also quite invested in his longevity. Long live good authors!

    In third grade we would always have lessons on the carpet to I guess be more connected or smthg? Anyways we were bored so my friend tried to show me how to breakdance, and I spun around a bunch and accidentally tripped a kid who was carrying a couple boxes of pastels. He landed flat on his face. The teacher called my parents. It was not a great day

I'm convinced he chose 3rd grade because he got "more" spanks in each kid. IRONICALLY HE volunteered to talk to the class about sexual assault and where/who is allowed to touch you...

    As a kid I always wondered what Mom and Dad do when I'm asleep. Could not imagine!

    This may explain the troubles with Americans and geography.

    Notice how it says "Geometry" not "geography"?

    My mom's remedy for everything was : have a Spite, take a hot bath and then take a nap. Sleep is, after all, the poor man's physician.

    It was ginger ale growing up. And there is some truth if there's any ginger in ginger ale any more.

    My mom gave me coke and saltsticks when I had fever. I guess to drink more and feel better.

    The ginger in ginger ale treats nausea. Sprite only has sugar.

    Poor kids nowadays, we at least always had hope that there would be too much snow so we couldn't go to school. Mind you, never ever has this actually happened in my life. Not even once. But still, it was nice to feel that hopeful.

    I love how kids actually use all parts of the house for sitting and lying down, whereas us boring adults only the boring parts like chairs. I can't even remember the last time I was lying under a bed or on top of the table, man what a boring adult have I become.

    It's been a few weeks since I sat on the table in front of the couch. And I keep telling my kids to not sit on tables. Lol. I miss lying down on the kitchen floor and just absorbing the kitchen-vibes. I did that a lot before I had kids. I may do it again soon. I would do lie down on the bathroom floor again too, if it wasn't for all the potties.... 😬

    What is it about "Can I borrow a saw?"? I worked for this law firm (in accounting) and I called the supply guy, asking whether I can borrow a hacksaw (just to yank his chain). He said they didn't have one. Two minutes later he and five lawyers showed up in my office, curious about what I needed a hack saw for.
