It’s that time of the month again when moms and dads have yet another 31 days of parenting in the books. Welcome to Bored Panda’s list featuring parenting tweets: May edition! Because when it’s hard being a mom and dad, it’s also really fun, but time goes by and soon everything turns into memories.

Unless you share it on the internet. No wonder there’s a saying that what gets posted online stays there forever. And when it comes to parenting tweets, they surely can become a part of an excellent archive reliving our complex reality, including the absurdity, joy and challenge of it that comes with raising kids.

So let’s pull our seats closer and take a moment to see how May went for moms and dads on Twitter who didn’t miss a chance to share the hilarious conversations, accidents and experiences they had with the little ones.

After you’re done, there’s a lot more parenting tweets to chuckle at from previous months here, here and here.

    We all want what’s best for our kids. Sometimes, however, parents try so hard to be the best for their kids and make the little daredevils happy that they inevitably spoil them. A spoiled child can’t handle hearing “no” and instead responds by throwing tantrums or going into full meltdowns. As onlookers watch, wondering what’s up with the poor little kid, their parents face the obvious– it’s them who failed to set boundaries early, and things may be too late.

    Some time ago, Bored Panda spoke with professional educator Lynn How, the author of “Positive Young Minds” who specializes in supporting parents, teachers, and children navigating through mental health issues and prevention. How shared a couple of insights into this topic about which many parents don’t feel comfortable talking.

    Why does it matter to the school why the kid is late if the parents are showing up and signing them in? Whether little Jimmy's grandma died the night before, he just overslept the alarm, or the car died so they had to wait for a jump, that's an issue for the parents to deal with. They showed up, got out of their car, and signed the kid in to avoid the tardy. Get the kid to the classroom so they can get an education because an effort is being made to that end goal.

    It also helps the school know if there are issues at home that might affect the child's academic or social-emotional development.

    How explained that a lack of appropriate boundaries can be very confusing for a child. “Although on the outside, these children can seem argumentative and rude, this stems from a lack of self-confidence on the inside as they have not been given these tools,” she said. The educator explained that “once their safety blanket of the parents spoiling them has been removed, coping on their own would bring on anxiety which could manifest itself as a tantrum.”

    For a few months during the 80s I went to a small parochial school that didn't have its own outside area so they'd use 2 white van to take us to nearby parks for recess/gym. The nearest one was It was far enough away that walking with a bunch of kids would use up an entire lunch break or gym so the vans were used. They'd alternate vans so you'd get as much of the 60 minute gym class as possible. School went year round because they got tons of time off for major religious holidays (ie most of lent and advent). Mom worked for the associated church and tuition was cheaper than day care in the summer. The day before US Independence Day, our gym teachers took us to a nearby park that was having a field day to celebrate a new playground. One was nearly arrested for giving kids candy then putting them in the white van, shutting the door, and returning to the ball field for more kids. We were getting candy for how we did at our events then went to sit in the AC while the next group of kids finished their races. From an outsider he did look like a mass kidnapper. It was made worse because he'd left the park with another bunch of kids and returned empty a few minutes before because my class was the last one of the day and the other gym teacher had brought us. The writing with the school name was on the other side of the van as well.

    Reminds me of the time my daughter was 3. She found out that her nickname was casbah, named after my favourite perfume. She got so mad she went into my bedroom, took the bottle of perfume, screamed for me and when I appeared she threw it at the wall. Smashed. A full bottle of perfume. Could still smell it when we moved out 3 years later.

    Spoiled children form behavior that manifests in communicating not just with their parents or caregivers, but with friends, relatives, even strangers too. “Often these children will have friendship issues as they find it challenging to let others have their own way and they may find it difficult to form positive relationships with other adults such as teachers due to difficulty with conformity,” How explained and added that this adds up to a childhood that is more challenging than it needs to be.

    What’s interesting is that much of spoiled behavior, if not treated early, continues into adulthood. “Do you know anyone who has trouble keeping their emotions in check when they don’t get their own way? It may be that they were spoilt as a child and this hasn’t done them any favors as they move into their adult life,” How told us.

    She explained that these children may turn into adults who show less resilience when things go wrong and they may give up easily when things aren’t working out. Also, they want it all and they want it now, whereas most adults can tolerate delayed gratification.

    My stepdaughter tends to really get talking right during snuggle time in the evenings - like, any deep thought or question she's collected in the last 5 years comes to the surface. We've started playfully acting like we were falling asleep on top of her bed with our heads on her blanket, and she ALWAYS makes us go to our beds because "there's not enough room for us all", and it's HER bed, not ours.. Best hack we ever discovered, we're much better rested now!

    Madam, may I say that you are bringing up a son with impeccable taste.

    “Other traits that they may display include a lack of independence as their problems were generally solved for them, an inability to take criticism as nothing they did badly would invoke the appropriate feedback, and the idea that everything should just come to them easily without too much work. This last point is also coupled with a huge sense of disappointment when it doesn’t work out.” Being spoiled as a child doesn’t set a child up to have positive relationships or good mental health as an adult and that becomes a way greater problem than it was when the kid was little.

    We did this with my 1 year old nephew who was just starting to toddle around and touch things. We put away anything we could and baby proofed as well as possible, and then just had to watch him carefully. He didn’t understand words like sharp, fragile, etc so we would say hot and redirect if needed. Yes my lovie, the printer is hot.

    I grew up without a dishwasher for a few years when my parents couldn’t afford to get it fixed or replaced. My brother and I had dish-duty each night and this taught us to work together. Now I much prefer to wash by hand than load & unload a dishwasher.

Lol it was like I thought teachers were "robots" that lived at the school and powered down when us kids left for the day.

    My son had found his grandmothers razor near the tub and shaved off part of his right eyebrow. A few days later, my husband is giving me a haircut and drags the electric clippers across a comb to trim my bangs. I was like "Did you just shave my eyebrow?" He says "No" takes comb away "Oops..." Same half..same eyebrow. So for a while, whenever my son and I were together, it looked like an inherited genetic abnormality than an accident.

    Maybe they were originally called flutterflies because of how they flutter when the fly and someone misheard and thought they said butterflies...but they relayed it with such confidence that other people unfamiliar with the creature bought into their BS and believed them. It's the same premise on why people think vaccines cause autism and universal healthcare is communist socialism.....

    I've got this solved. Let them play till 11pm. They collapse from exhaustion because unlike you, they are not coffee powered. Then you pick them up and dump them as-is on the bed. Next morning wake them up with a miliary bugle call. Do this a few times and they get it.

    There is a solution for this, it's called dire threats and bribery. Before entering: "if you irritate me I will taze you. If you are good you get a bag of candy. Your choice." Make sure you can do a deadpan face, otherwise they do not fall for it.

    This one you solve by pausing everytime the child speaks, and give an answer. That way you are actually answering the questions but you get the message across. And when they're watching something you ask loud questions all the way through.
