Is this toxic, helicopter, or the healthy norm? (To collect the phones at night) Genuine question.

I'd like to say it's healthy norm to help reduce screen time and make sure they don't stay up late. These days people are overly obsessed and reliant on cellsphone and tablets so this could help them develop a healthy relationship with screens or at the very least make sure they get proper sleep

I think she’s joking about being grounded, I hope so at least. Never punish anyone, kid or adult for being clever, good natured, funny and creative. Mom better choose her battles cause being grounded just gives them more time to plot the next torture - hehe

My father got tired of his children calling him at work tattling on one another so he announced over the phone, "the next kid who calls him at work over something silly or stupid, there had better be fire or blood involved or there will be when he gets home." The calls to dad at work halted immediately.

    Thank you! My son picks his clothes 90% of the time. And every time he does, his socks aren't a matching pair and neither are his shoes. And that's okay! It makes him happy and he's a kid. This is when he SHOULD be learning to identify what makes him happy, not how to color coordinate his outfit.

    So, Parents Humor (stylized ParentsHumor without the space) is an Instagram page that currently clocks in at a bit over 54,000 on the follower scale. While the page seems to have become a tad bit inactive, with its most recent post being from 29 weeks ago (over a half a year already), it still has a sizable collection of humor packed into meme form across nearly 400 posts.

    According to the Insta page, the genius behind it is a mother of 4 who described herself as “just a mom who is tired of being tired!”—all too relatable for parents who have learned that there is a state beyond exhaustion, tiredness and fatigue put together.

    I have a 6 year old granddaughter whom I sometimes (most of the time) lovingly (nope, not lovingly one iota) refer to as “The Spawn of Satan” (I toss in a few foul swear words before and after that for color). Out of the obvious choices I’m already choosing “Long Term Serial Killer”. Her mother is typically soft and feels “Life in Prison for Bludgeoning Husband to Death without a chance of parole” is her guess. Without a Chance for parole because she’d record it on her phone and post it on social media saying “Oh look, the dumb S****. tripped and fell on my axe…. 27 times! Accidents happen.” Judge? Not even a little amused.

    They are also going to lose when they should’ve won, be teased, get their heart broken, be cheated out of money and lied to at least once…..or at least you hope so. That’s the hardest part of parenting…..letting bad s**t happen to them so they learn disappointment, learn to adapt, make choices, learn all actions have consequences and think for themselves! You are doing him/ her a tragic disservice by protecting them from life’s lessons. Coping, rising above, getting over it, gumption, perseverance, all lessons that can only be learned by loosing- not winning. We have all encountered what types of adults the ones turn out to be that never faced consequences. I feel so sorry for these people , their delayed maturity and remember, I was one of them. Don’t do that to your kid please. Many are never able to face reality and cannot cope, they wind up addicted, depressed, self harming, self defeating, and so alone.

    I don’t like it when ‘childless by choice’ people act like parents would trade places with them if they could because they are envious of one little thing. (Parent: “Oh I wish I could go to Hawaii too.” Childless person smugly: “Yeah well you chose to have kids.”). I wouldn’t trade my kids for a vacation…

    I think there is a tension between "childless by choice" who often feel harassed or pressured to have kids and "parents who need to vent" who are not upset with their life choices, just needing a momen to reset and be human (especially with the separations of the last few years) where it is easy for the first group to listen to the second group and say "see, this is why parenting sucks" when it just has hard parts but also good parts and easy for parents who need to vent to cling to the good parts of being parents (especially around nonparents) so we aren't forced to defend our life choices over being tired of dealing with poop this week. And of course, there are the people who latch on to either or both groups as people to bring down to feel like they have lifted themselves up, who are the real problem and need to get help.

    This is so important. I worked in schools for 25 years, and the majority of parents view school employees as the enemy. Those famous words, my child would never. Yes they would, and yes they did. Consequences in school are less harsh then the real world.

    I get a little of an impression that is changing as parents connect over the fact that it's a mixed bag and society is willing to let you be a "good parent" and still have kids that, indeed, did that thing, and probably those other things. I think we are also adopting a culture of working together for the best outcome instead of being as adversarial about it, so parents are more likely to come in and tell a teacher "honestly they need to work on X and Y, we are trying, but we wanted to make sure you knew" or teachers will say "hey, you might want to look into figuring out if your child needs help with x" and while it may be hard for parents to hear that still, it's not generally considered the direct attack I think many saw it as in the past.

    I remember that my oldest had a phase where she was like demon possessed while I tried to get us ready to get to the kindergarten. I would tell the kindergarten teachers when she'd been extra tough to deal with. And they would not believe me! In kindergarten she was the most adorable little girl that always put a smile on everyone's face. Until one day, when I picked her up. The teacher who handed her to me was like *😳* and then she said "I think we met her demonic side today....". Since then they believed me when I told her she'd been hard to handle in the morning. Lol.

    The page features a little bit of everything. Mostly memes, but also moments in the life of a parent and witty “just parenting” quotes.

    Yes, it’s a certain kind of venting when you really think about it, pointing out just how exhausting and relentless kids can be. But at the end of the day, it’s all humor, laughter, and a positive outlook to parenting.

    Yoga pants are a conventional preference. Kids tripping over their toys for the 100th time despite being told to clean up is a great teaching opportunity (and a good opportunity for a giggle). Perpetual exhaustion is a symptom of your dedication to raising amazing human beings. It’s true, it’s challenging, but it’s great.

    I honestly relate.. I just get overloaded when I go out, after too much stimuli I kinda break and get like a fog in my head and I get agitated easily, I can't be around to many people, it's exhausting.. I'd rather be curled up on the couch with my hubby watch our 2yr old play and binge something on Netflix than go out..

    No, but you can buy test strips to test the alcohol content of your breast milk to determine when you can safely breast feed after. Or you pump before you have a drink. (I'm also child free but have three god kids. My best friend, their mom, is how I know that interesting bit of info)

    Shouldn't be drinking alcohol when you are the sole adult taking care of minor children, especially babies. Alcohol slows reaction times and can also cause you to be sleepy. My eldest was 3 months old and her dad and I went out for a meal for the first time time since having her. He had a few beers and I refused alcohol. We got home and my mother in law said my daughter had been good and was asleep. I checked and she was fine. So we went to bed. A couple of hours later I woke up suddenly and I listened but couldn't hear anything but got up and went to my daughter. She was vomiting and choking on it. I picked her up and helped her. If I'd had even 1 glass of wine I'd have slept and not woken up till morning and she would have been dead.

    My trick to motivate myself AND the Y chromosome mate….invite his Mom over this weekend. I clean whole rooms and finish chores….he helps, admits one of the kids smell so bathe them all….he gets the kids to Tidying the yard, cause his Dad will look first thing, comment and offer a better way to blow leaves and grill. By the time parents get here, we are all so exhausted we look relaxed and they think the kids are so well behaved, they really are just pooped.

    This is where my planning panic works wonders: my coworkers said I'd have to kick the habit of planning everything once my twins would be born. Instead, I'm laying out my and my children's clothes the evening before, I'm packing the bags we need, I'm preparing the snacks... We look good. The flat, not so much. But I'm thinking about getting a cleaning service once a week so that wouldn't be so bad. Does it help with the stress levels? Nope.

Like if it's the weekday and i have to leave by 6am and your school doesn't start until 8 ( you can walk theer in 3 min) stay asleep until i'm gone. and if it its the weekend and you wake me up at 6am because you want something i don't need to do or make until 8 - leave me be or you'll wish it was the weekday ;)

    I hate when parents do this. Tired is tired, doesn't matter how you got that way. You don't hear me saying: I wish I was as tired as I thought I was before having a 3 day adderall binge and being awake 72 hours straight without eating. Nope, I would never say that because it's ridiculous of me to assume I know how you feel/have felt.

Sometimes I'd get unsolicited advice about how he was probably hungry/cold/too hot/tired etc. I was like no he just hates stores.

    I have 3 kids and I am in full Christmas prep-mode. I have sorted our Christmas decorations and made a creative Christmas-box (because we'll have a day of making new decorations etc). It's been a month since I had all the presents for the kids' advent calendars bought and I wrapped the last ones last week (with the help of my mom.). I even got my bf a gift for each of the advent Sundays and a Christmas stocking with his fav nfl-team. Today I found stockings for all the kids to hang in 2 stores (the stores will put a little candy in each stocking on each Sunday in advent). Today I also wrote the first 6 Christmas cards. I am on a ROLL!!!! (I love to prep for Christmas early so I will have the last important Christmas-stuff done by the first week of December at the latest. I usually start in August by finding small presents for the advent calendars at flea markets etc. Can actually recommend it 100%!). I love to have a relaxed December for as long as I can. :)

    Many years ago, when our kids were young and we lived far from other family, we asked them what they wanted for thanksgiving dinner, turkey or ham. The unanimous choice was mom's homemade pizza. So that has been our thanksgiving and Christmas go-to dinner for the last 20+ years.

    When my mom takes me to Target, I just leave her behind and go straight to the Nintendo section to look for a game I might want.

    My kids are in their 30’s and yet… I still feel my blood boil when the boss is mean to him or Her boyfriend makes her sad. I guess it never stops!

    Me too, when my son was in school and would come home and tell me someone was mean to him I would ask him if I needed to come to school, he always said no because he knew what would happen if I did and he was afraid he'd get retaliated against. I still would handle things though lol.

    Not a mom. I have a nephew I love with all my being. When he was a kid he took karate. I was visiting Dallas and I went to see one of his classes. I don’t remember what he did to p!$$ off the instructor, but my nephew was a green belt and the instructor had a second degree red belt go after him, telling her to back him into a corner and kick him in the head. Mom handled the situation better than me. I had to get up and walk out because little me was ready to race over and take on a second degree black belt. Oh don’t think I couldn’t, because at that point, oh ya. His mom went to the owner of the school. The instructor did not finish the class and fired on the spot. My nephew is now 6ft 6in tall and 325lbs of pure muscle. I still say don’t mess with him, or you’ll have me to deal with.

    and six of them will be one fraction od the S**T that my kids can do. the seventh will be shouting so loudly i will almost be heard over you crying because I spilt milk over your car, skunk half of sainsbury's into your shopping bag, told a random person that you hit me, subsequently ran into the road screaming, stealing a toy car from tescos and saying that you did it and when you get home, creating a mountain of laundry with clothes you did not even know you had,

    My mom looked great after 6 kids. Although it was difficult to hug her with a straight jacket on and the mask didn't have a vent on the front like Hannibal Lecture's
