40 Funny And Relatable Parenting Memes From ‘Death By Diapers’

What is truly upsetting me in gender reveal parties (which also should actually be named sex reveal parties as this is what they are) is that people are making a big deal about having a boy or a girl. Why does it matter? Get a puppy if you want to choose. Boys and girls should be loved equally. I understand that we can have preferences as in "oh after three boys it would be nice to have a girl" but having dozens of relatives gathered just to see your reaction when you find out if you are having a boy or a girl is seriously disturbing. And I am not even mentioning the death that occurred, the wild fires, the mess simply left behind...

That's how ours was. Do you want to know what you are having? Yes. It's a boy. We just told people if they asked us. No reveal party or any of that. Though I don't think reveal parties are such a big thing in the UK

I kept having "gender unreveal" parties like this. "Please don't tell me the sex! No, honestly, we don't want to know until the baby arrives. No, really. Please just tell me if the baby is healthy." Ad inifinitum. Who on earth cares what sex the baby is? And "gender reveal" is a misnomer anyway because gender only gets figured out later!

Not exactly a party but I doubt your whole family would fit in ultrasound room. Why, do we really need a party for that. Pretty sure our parents didn't have one. Good news all people involved survived.

They had gender revelation when I was younger. They called it childbirth.

Currently, the thread above this one is the one about the baby with the iPad.

I don't care if they use an iPad occasionally as long as they experience the satisfaction of successfully climbing up the slide

Kids can do both. Just monitor their time for each. They should be playing outside more often, but these days it's not always possible. It's okay for kids to play inside the house, too.

RIP to my tamagotchi and giga pet

Definitely for girls. Boys need to watch a live child birth after boys have to take care of child that has colic. Let's see how many kids happen after that sex Ed class.

Scaring teens into never having sex ever, a tactic famous for it's success in preventing teen pregnancy /s

Just task the class to go shopping with a 4 year old, that would be enough

I feel sorry for her. It sounds like her husband is a waster. However (surprise, surprise), this is not a typical Dad.

Maybe a father paying child support should be the teacher's assistant.

It really does depend on how the story is told. When my daughter was about 3 she was playing with her toys in the bath, she had a cheap kids magnifying glass. She noticed that when she held it near the wall, the light from the window became focused and she got the image of the window, sun, sky, and clouds on the white tiles. It's pretty cool I think. But when I'm feeling particularly pompous I'll tell people she reinvented the camera obscura when she was 3 years old.

My three year old nephew's most profound statements so far are: "[deceased dog] went to sleep in the clouds", which I thought was really beautiful. It was certainly much nicer than the subsequent one which came a few months later: "Everything dies". All I could do was say "yeah, you're right about that unfortunately".

LOL

The 4yo sometimes mutter some real deep s**t without even knowing what they are talking about. They hear their parents using smart words in certain ways and copy it

🤪

Haha, can't believe you fell for that! I gotta stop scrolling and work on some laundry now. I'm the only one that can get it to smell so fresh... wait a minute

My wife and "best mate" always told me that my tea making was so much better than anyone else's.......blimey I'm thick.

This makes me think of a German story called der Räuber Hotzenplotz (Robber Hotzenplotz in English)! Zwackelmann is a magician but he needs to find a servant to peel his potatoes for him because he keeps trying to do it with magic and failing miserably. There's also a film of this story.
