It’s no secret that parenting is hard. But somehow, when your toddler is melting down again because you dared to hand them the wrong snack, it feels like no one in the history of child-rearing has ever had it as bad as you.

The truth is, plenty of people have been there—and weirdly, that’s kind of comforting. One of them is the creator behind Death By Diapers, a self-described “geriatric millennial with 5 young kids using memes to cope with this beautifully tragic thing called parenthood.”

Below, you’ll find some of their funniest and most painfully relatable posts. So go ahead, enjoy those five rare minutes of bathroom peace and have a much-needed laugh.

    I was terribly stubborn when I was younger. If something wasn't going to seriously injure me my parents just let it happen. It was the only way I'd learn. Still is in a way. I learn best by doing rather than it being taught/shown to me.

    When I was 14 I had to start babysitting at 4am, 5 mornings a week (I know, I know.) I’d get to the house and intend to just go back to sleep on their couch until 7ish when it was time to get the little girl up and ready for school. But she always woke up the moment I got there 🥲 and was bouncing off the walls excited to play dolls or whatever.
