50 Times Parenting Turned People Into Comedians As They Share The Funniest Tweets (September Edition)
Parenting is the ultimate skill marathon, every single time you start to “figure it out,” one’s kids get older, their personalities develop more and you’re back at zero. However, through the magic of the internet, parents can document this journey day by day, which is a great source of advice for other parents and a great source of humor for us.
So we’ve gathered some of the best hilarious and relatable tweets from parents this September, so get comfortable, make sure the kids are in bed, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your own thoughts, experiences and observations in the comments section down below.

Memes are the internet's method of taking an instant moment and making it a narrative that everyone immediately gets. They succeed because they take something strangely particular, a toddler not wanting to eat on the "wrong" color plate, a parent cowering in the bathroom for thirty seconds of quiet, or a baby choosing 3 a.m. is the perfect time for a party, and cast it in a format so mundane and universal that thousands of strangers can laugh and ponder, “that's me too”.
At their best, memes condense a whole experience into one image, caption, or slogan. You scroll over them in seconds, but they stick with you because they capture something both ubiquitous and mundane in a way words alone sometimes can't.

Part of the secret to memes is repetition with variation. The same format gets reused again and again, and each new take adds its own twist. This recycling makes memes feel like an ongoing group chat at a massive scale: if you’ve seen the format before, you’re already “in” on the joke, and the humor comes from how each version reshapes the familiar.

Parenting tweets work the same way. They're funny one at a time, but collectively, they form a chorus of frustration and goofiness that all parents can relate to. They don't just tell you *parenting is hard*, they show dozens of tiny ways it blindsides people every day.
Relatability is at the center of why memes and tweets are so deeply resonating. Parenting is a perpetual juggling act, with moments infuriating in the moment but laugh-out-loud hilarious when shared. There is the eternal snack negotiating, the bedtime routine that becomes mini-wars of diplomacy, the toddler logic that is right to them and wrong to you. By keeping these battles brief, punchy jokes, parents online turn individual chaos into shared laughter. Having someone else's daily disaster reflected back at you not only makes it bearable, it makes it enjoyable.

Once, when my hubby and kids went out to dinner I pretended I had to wait in for a parcel delivery.
And so a list of funny parenting tweets reads like a satire or more than a string of gags. Read straight through, it becomes almost a living meme, a stitched-together narrative of modern parenthood told in the form of dozens of rapid-fire vignettes. Every tweet adds to the picture: one about not sleeping, another about impossible meal times, another about the sheer unpredictability of children. Together, they form a collage that says, “this is what it's really like”.

I made a separate account for my kids in my name so their music wouldn’t alter mine

What's great about this sort of humor is the way that it makes individuals feel less alone. Parenting is isolating, and it's easy to assume you're the only one attempting to navigate meltdowns at the supermarket shelf or a child who won't remove pajamas to attend school. But when you turn those experiences into humor that's being shared by thousands of others, it puts the struggle back into context. Rather than being just stressful, it's something to joke about, something you can laugh with other people who've been through it too.
Finally, parenting tweets and memes succeed because they take individual chaos and render it in terms everyone can understand. They show that humor is a survival strategy, that the worst parts of raising children are also the most human, and that there's comfort in knowing other humans are waging the same battles. A successful parenting meme doesn't mock you, it lets you know you belong to a bigger, sicker, funnier community.

On a Sunday, when all the shops were closed, the Offspring ask me where we keep the puff pastry. She needed it for cookery class the next day. That evening was spent learning how to make puff pastry from scratch. It took hours. Fold, roll, chill, fold, roll, chill... Her teacher looked at the pastry and said, "What is that?!" "It's puff pastry. We made it last night." "Oh, I suppose it will have to do." - - - My Mam was a former cookery teacher, and she was horrified by the teacher's response. How many people (cooks and chefs aside) have made puff pastry? And, yes, it was very tasty, but not so tasty that we've ever made it again. :o)

If my kids are having a banana with their lunch pack, I will write the kid's name on it and make an easy drawing on it as well. Anything that my kids will like. This month will be a lot of ghosts and vampire mouths saying my kid's name. Lol. It's often just flowers or trees or clouds with or without rainbows.

It's ok. They will stop him at the cockpit door... no one will know he/she is yours until the head flight attendant gives you the lecture like I got.

When my daughter was about 4 years old I bought her a Snow White outfit. When she wore it I said, "Snow White always remembers her manners." "Snow White always tidies up her toys." "Snow White never argues with her sister." I got an impeccably behaved child for a day.

If you're a parent, these are REALLY funny. But I can feel my little children, now in their late 30s, rolling their eyes.
