Let’s all just give a big round of applause to all parents who dedicated their 18 years (or rather, their whole lives) to professionally taming a little daredevil, and often not one but two or three, or more. With bloodshot eyes and not much fuel left in their tank, moms, dads and caregivers keep surprising us all with their sheer level of resilience, straight face, and even a smile.
Because raising kids is not for the faint-hearted. So in order to remind us of that, Bored Panda compiled a collection of posts where kids made their parents' day really miserable.
So that your coffee stain, lost keys and really important email sent out to the wrong address won’t feel so bad!

Just Brilliant
And This Is Exactly Why You Shouldnât Let Your Kids Go In The Bathroom Together With You
It Wasnât Even Double Stuffed
To find out about navigating parenting in these crazily uncertain times, Bored Panda reached out to Natalie Maximets, a certified life transformation coach at “Online Divorce,” which is a professional divorce document preparation service with 20 years of market history.
“The pandemic and isolation have certainly shocked every family with a child. Now our houses or apartments aren’t just places where we live. Currently, this space also serves as an office, a school, a place for activities, etc.,” Natalie told us.
According to her, the situation is twofold. “On the one hand, parents are constantly with their children and can devote more time to them. But on the other hand, not everyone can withstand such a stress test as limited space doesn’t provide an opportunity to direct one’s energy and emotions outward.”

Kids, Sharpies, And A Dalmatian Makes For Interesting Times
What’s more, the need to combine multiple roles is even more obvious.There are many challenges parents can face during times of pandemic and postpandemic. “First, they have to act as teachers because of homeschooling. However, not all parents have the necessary skills to explain the subject matter to their children easily. Moreover, with this additional role, it becomes more challenging to maintain a balance,” Natalie explained.
“Second, parents can face behavioral problems in their children. Due to a lack of interaction with other kids, the inability to play with someone other than their parents, and a limited list of activities, children can become irritable, aggressive, or hyperactive (it’s purely individual).” Natalie said that such situations are challenging for both the children and the parents.
It's Amazing How Unhelpful Kids Can Be While Trying So Very Hard To Be Helpful
Kid Buys Farts From Amazon
This Kid At Lowes
The fact the man is trying to figure out how to solve this while standing next to a sign that reads 'plan b' makes me inexplicably pleased đ€·ââïž
Took me a moment to see the kid; my first thought was that they would be taking a dump on the toilet display
If you were the parent of a child that could do this, you would have had the corners knocked off you ages ago and would be more concerned about the stock the child is potentially damaging than the kid (my kids are climbers)
Load More Replies...Don't judge when you see a parent using a child harness and tether. This demon needs one.
I disagree with the word "demon," as this kid's climbing and adventurousness could maybe be an asset in a rural community, and is natural. But yeah the need for a leash is real.
Load More Replies...That one employee is just looking at that kid like "what I'm gonna tell my boss"
Dad " would anyone notice if I sneak out of here?".

Itâs the smirk on the kids face for me. You almost have to say, âwell doneâ đ€·đ»ââïž
Y'all, this is easy when you know how. Used a ladder to access our roof when I was 2.
The real question is....how on earth did he get up there in the first place!
Just practicing his mountain goat skills........he'll come down eventually when he's hungry.
And it was on that day that little Timmy discovered that he could NOT, fly like Superman. đ€
This is just very bad parenting, I do not find this funny at all! If the parent(s) were truly watching the kid , he would have never got that high to begin with! And sad thing is parents would have found some horrible loophole to sue the store for the kid getting hurt or even death!
Heâs looking for his parents. They forgot they brought him and headed for home.
I doubt this is the first time for this kind of behavior. Dad wearing construction shirt and takes the kid on-site.
This is actually fake. I work at Lowe's and from what I understand this was edited a few years ago for a safety meeting.
I feel like the operative word here is *had*.
Load More Replies...I just wanted to see where the birds lived. If you've ever been in these big box stores, there's always birds flying around.
If I were his parents, I'd be making a b-line for the front door never to be seen again.
My son is autistic. He's 23 now. The little sh*t did this when he was three . It's finally funny. Back then though I left the store sobbing
WTF? I was looking for a little darling going for a poop on the toilet!
Lucky the solution is there as well. The worker on the left is on the step lift. He'll be lifted to the kid's level and grab him down.
* Spider man. Spider man. does whatever a spider can.* " A c**p, can't get down. Damn, this sucks. whelp. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fake picture. A few years ago I saw this picture and showed it at work (I work at Lowe's). Someone let me know it was faked for training purposes
Holy mother! It reminds me of once I looked away while my 3 yr old was playing by the swings, looked up a second later and she was walking across the top of the swing set. Total heart failure!
I'm curious as to how exactly the kid got up there in the first place. There is a reason to watch your child 24/7 even if it means taking 3 hours to find the product you need, because you are so distracted by them that you have grabbed the wrong kind 10 times in a row.
my first thought is how the the world did u not notice this TODDLER for the length of time if took him to actually climb up there!! i never took my eyes off my child in stores for anywhere near long enough for them to be able to climb especially this high!!
I'm thinking that's dad in the blue t shirt, leaning one elbow on "PlanB" sign, feeling a little proud, and a little worried about what the wife/ mother is going to say about taking his eyes off of the boy for just a few seconds; he knows he's going to hear" I told you to not let him out of your sight!!!"
Damm. How did he get up there? Spooderman Spooderman does whatever Spooterman does!
It could be worse. He could be up on a two story apartment building. Like my son.
âClark Kent! You quit showing off, and get your butt down here, NOW!â
How did this end???? Did the kid climb back down? Did the man have to go up and get him? Was the fire department called?
my ququestion is how did the kid get himself up there in the first place
I used to work at Lowe's đ only way down is a forklift đđđ
the kids face. Honestly I've made that face so many times it gives me great joy to see him know how much chaos he has caused. UwU
This actually fake. I work at Lowe's and this is edited. Even Corporate knows about it
Some kids love high places. When I was around 8 i found a ladder on the back of the drive-in screen. My dad was looking for me but for the life of him couldn't find me (there was a playground at the foot of the screen), he was not happy when I said up here and he sees me on the edge of the screen. (I don't remember how high up it was only that it was one of the larger drive-in movie screens). :)
I will pay cash just to sit in that room when the Husband comes up with the explanation to the wife after she finds out.
My first thought was: how in the world did this little one climb up there and even unnoticed by others??! Mysteries. My little one was able to remove the plastic thing that connects the lid and bottle of a small Nalgene bottle, you know that top connection on top of the cap that is like really tight? To this day, I couldn't figure out how he did it nor how to put it back! Mysteries...
How long was he not watching his kid that he made it all the way up there're??
How do you Let your kid out of your sight that long for he can climb a rack at Loweâs Iâve been a single father for 16 years I still donât let him out of my sight
“Third, it can be difficult for working parents to take care of their children’s daily routines. Kindergartens, schools, and hobby groups are extremely important. They help structure children's lives, fill them with meaning every day, and reduce conflicts in the family. In the new realities, parents have to think about how to keep their children busy every minute.”

Moreover, Natalie explained that during quarantine, people become closer to each other. As a result, personal boundaries are blurred, leading to two possible scenarios. “In scenario one, parents and children start working against each other, causing conflicts. In scenario two, they manage to establish an even deeper connection with each other. The main thing with the second scenario is to not leave the child alone with their fears.”
She Thought This Was "White Water"

My Son Said He Was Hot And Wanted Ice Cream. This Is Not What I Expected
For any parent who feels overwhelmed with trying to juggle out these duties, Natalie’s advice is to change perspective. “Young parents may feel overwhelmed, anxious, and stressed out because they take on too much and want to be ideal parents. But remember, the child doesn’t need a perfect mom or dad. They need emotionally healthy parents because the parent’s psychological state directly affects the kids.”
She continued: “Therefore, every time you feel strained to your limits, just stop, exhale, and deal with the problem you can solve at the moment. It will make you feel capable of doing something. Then, try to break bigger problems into smaller ones. You’ll see that there are practically no unsolvable situations.”

At the same time, it seems like there are too many parenting styles and methods out there. Natalie confirmed that the topic is often very controversial, with many parents having strong opinions about raising their children. “But at the same time, the goal is always the same—to raise a happy, healthy, and successful child. Each of the existing parenting styles and methods focuses on it.”

According to the life coach, it is crucial to find the one that works for your child. “For example, the well-known Montessori method may not suit an active child. Waldorf education may not work for children with strong leadership qualities and a great need for physical activity. Technique by Cecil Lupan requires the baby’s mother to spend almost all of her time exercising with her child.”

Natalie added that there is no single recipe to understand what is suitable for your child. Having said that, she also listed some steps you may want to think about. “First, you should analyze your child’s personality and the required level of physical activity, creativity, and socialization. Second, think about the 4 main parenting styles (authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, uninvolved) and try to predict your child’s reaction to each of them. Perhaps in your case, you can’t choose one style. Then, think about how you can mix them or even work out your own.”
Natalie concluded that as a parent, you can also go to a professional psychologist who will talk with you and your child, determine strong sides and interests, and suggest possible options.

I've helped raised kids from infants to teens. They weren't mine but I did help raise them. Parenting is hard, but it also takes parents who actually care and PAY ATTENTION TO THEIR KIDS. A lot of what was shown took a long time to accomplish. That means the parents WEREN"T PAYING ATTENTION. You don't need to have given birth to a child to raise one or just take care of one. You need patience, love and you MUST ALWAYS PAY ATTENTION to the little darlings even if you would rather put them in carboard box and ship their spoilt asses back to amazon.

My kid almost broke my nose with those hard cardboard "starter" books. I had a bad headache & was lying in the couch while he played. He wanted to read, i guess, and came over with it. All i heard was "BOOK!" & opened my eyes to see the spine of it being wailed into the bridge of my nose. First came stars. Then it was blood everywhere! Had to call my mom (an ex nurse) to come check it & watch him while i stopped the bleeding. Not broken but still had a few black eyes for a few days. He was probably like 2 and hes 14 now. We still laugh about it
Good thing I will never have to deal with all of that! Also, condoms are way cheaper than some of the little "accidents"....
Heck, vasectomy, ablasion, and tubal ligation can all be cheaper options in the long run for those who don't want to have children but also don't want to be stuck with uncomfortable condoms or hormone based birth control the rest of their life.

Parents are amazing to me, to put up with all the mess and the screaming and I could never deal with all those things w/o going crazy and livid and this is why I decided never to have kids.
Why are parents more concerned with posting photos of said situations as content on their Twitter or Instagram feeds as opposed to...making sure the kids can't get into anything that might be dangerous for them? Some of these look like your average accidents in the adventures of life and some just make it seem like one or both parents are really bad at paying attention to what their kids are doing I get that little kids get quiet and are speedy little devils at times but it looks more and more like people just have children to have continuous streams of content and attention on social media. Parenting would be easier for them if they'd put the phone down and actually parent. And yes, I have a child of my own who is 16 now. His father let stuff like this happen but I didn't. My kid got messy but I taught him to pick up after himself and that when mommy says don't touch, she means it, all chemicals and sharp objects were kept up higher and out of reach of his hands.

Can't say I recall my son, myself, my siblings or any of the neighborhood kids being so destructive. (OK, DECADES later, the holes we dug and covered up to make underground forts in the woods caused some problems for tractors trying to develop the area... but that's not exactly the same thing.)
This seems more a 'parents fail at parenting' then anything. Maybe not leave little kids alone?
My children are 15 years apart so I was younger & I guess more alert with the first 2. My youngest was a child you could NEVER take your eyes off of. I was sleeping I woke because my mouth felt sticky & sweet. I sat up trying to figure out why my mouth felt so full. My second shocker was my son sitting beside me wearing a semi toothless little smile. I had no idea how he'd escaped his crib but along with that semi toothless little grin he was pink & shinny his head, Arms, legs and were all shinny. I dectected the scent of some kind of candy. He'd escaped from his crib, made it to his sister's room grabbed a little bag of FLAVORED lip gloss made it back to my room climbed in my bed took a bath in it or ate it or both then fed what was left to me in my sleep. Right now I am grateful he is an adult and just waiting for my brand new granddaughter to avenge me!

Had to call my mom (an ex nurse) to come check it & watch him while i stopped the bleeding. Not broken but still had a few black eyes for a few days. He was probably like 2 and hes 14 now. We still laugh about it
Good thing I will never have to deal with all of that! Also, condoms are way cheaper than some of the little "accidents"....
Heck, vasectomy, ablasion, and tubal ligation can all be cheaper options in the long run for those who don't want to have children but also don't want to be stuck with uncomfortable condoms or hormone based birth control the rest of their life.

Parents are amazing to me, to put up with all the mess and the screaming and I could never deal with all those things w/o going crazy and livid and this is why I decided never to have kids.
Why are parents more concerned with posting photos of said situations as content on their Twitter or Instagram feeds as opposed to...making sure the kids can't get into anything that might be dangerous for them? Some of these look like your average accidents in the adventures of life and some just make it seem like one or both parents are really bad at paying attention to what their kids are doing I get that little kids get quiet and are speedy little devils at times but it looks more and more like people just have children to have continuous streams of content and attention on social media. Parenting would be easier for them if they'd put the phone down and actually parent. And yes, I have a child of my own who is 16 now. His father let stuff like this happen but I didn't. My kid got messy but I taught him to pick up after himself and that when mommy says don't touch, she means it, all chemicals and sharp objects were kept up higher and out of reach of his hands.
Thank you, every deity in existence, for my being infertile, and due to my chronic health conditions, I'll be sterile soon!
And probably dead as well. That's quite something to be grateful for.

School will be delightful for them, I'm sure. Not having access to the same tech as your peers? They won't be behind, in the slightest.

I did lots of wierd things, myself (putting tea leaves in the clothes drier to make tea bags... mistaking boullion cubes for caramel candies... learning about baker's chocolate the hard way... forming "rivers" with the garden hose... even Lysol flamethrowers (YIPES!!!)) Can't say I recall my son, myself, my siblings or any of the neighborhood kids being so destructive. (OK, DECADES later, the holes we dug and covered up to make underground forts in the woods caused some problems for tractors trying to develop the area... but that's not exactly the same thing.)
This seems more a 'parents fail at parenting' then anything. Maybe not leave little kids alone?
My children are 15 years apart so I was younger & I guess more alert with the first 2. My youngest was a child you could NEVER take your eyes off of. I was sleeping I woke because my mouth felt sticky & sweet. I sat up trying to figure out why my mouth felt so full. My second shocker was my son sitting beside me wearing a semi toothless little smile. I had no idea how he'd escaped his crib but along with that semi toothless little grin he was pink & shinny his head, Arms, legs and were all shinny. I dectected the scent of some kind of candy. He'd escaped from his crib, made it to his sister's room grabbed a little bag of FLAVORED lip gloss made it back to my room climbed in my bed took a bath in it or ate it or both then fed what was left to me in my sleep. Right now I am grateful he is an adult and just waiting for my brand new granddaughter to avenge me!
This made me laugh so much. Especially the comments. I was down but not anymore. Great thread
Don't hate the children. Hate the parents who allowed them to be little demons and never bothered to correct the bad behavior.

Children are wonderful, but not easy to deal with all the time. I'd like to believe there's some nuance here.
Wait...it's starting to come back to me... Yes, I'm beginning to remember why I don't have kids.
A post celebrating terrible behaviour, and terrible parenting. Wonderful. These are the types of people who let their kid get hurt on a treadmill, then blame the manufacturer.
