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.

My daughter had a gender reveal, they already knew but they just wanted a little party and to get some diapers. They had a survivor themed party, and they had team girl and team boy, and we did challenges so everyone at the party was involved, and it was a lot of un, and no one got hurt and nothing damaged. It was just a way for family and friends to gather and celebrate them having a baby, and they just happened to let everyone know they were having a boy

I literally did my gender reveal today! I had my husband and boys bite into cupcakes that had colored frosting inside, recorded it and sent that to all family and friends, so everyone got to be part of it, all for the low cost of 4 cupcakes!

I have no problem with these parties. I'm not a parent and never will be but I can understand the excitement of the surprise. As long as the reveal method is safe, say cutting into a cake, or opening a box of balloons in your home I see no harm in this.

That would be nice, but I think trans activists would disagree. You don't know what the gender is till the baby tells you itself. Feel free to read this literally or as sarcasm, whichever you prefer.

The ones where they use baloons or actually set things on fire...silly

That's how it used to be. And even then, some people preferred not to know, it would be a surprise at birth :)

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. Edit: somehow managed to answer to the wrong post

In germany the doctor is only allowed to tell you the gender 13 weeks after gestation.

The good ole days..

Gender is a social construct. If anything it's a sex reveal party and it's a f***ing weird thing to do.

My mom and grandma always used to say : it doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl. The most important is that the baby is healthy

Gender reveal parties, just don't get it. Probably just another attempt at being the focus of everyone's attention? Some celebrity thing that needs to be copied out of fear of being, what? The only reason for me to celebrate it specifically would be if a certain genetic decease would be risky for one of the options.

Dumbest, dumbest ritual on earth. No one, I mean no one really cares what the sex is.

Life is hard, so I support any reason to celebrate, however, getting a gift for it is really annoying!

alGender reveal party. I believe that rather than gender reve, it is biological sex reveal. Gender is a social construct that is determined over time unless it is fluid because then it would be a space-time continuum.

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

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.

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.

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

I'm actually pretty good at the answers. However the repeated mom, mom, mom. I sometimes wonder if dying is the only way out. LOL

As long as they cry. My brother fell down two steps of stairs and my mother knew it was serious because he did not cry. He'd cracked his skull and was unconscious. Crying, though annoying, is still a good sign.

Yeah, Amanda and Chad!

"I've got my own life now!" "I know that! I just wanted to be a part of it!" *sniffle*

Has to be the kid that can clean the entire house in one night. And that includes cleaning up litres of paint without the lingering smell of turps, cleaning great gobs of honey with no stickiness left over, restoring burnt doorknobs, etc

Don't forget quicksand.

Spaceballs 😁

I'm the fun uncle that will dress up like whatever she wants. This Halloween I was a dinosaur and my dog was a Unicorn.

Let me recaption this for you. Parents 8 months into the pregnancy / Parents one week after the birth.

Priest, vicar and rabbi talk about when life begins. Vicar says "life begins at birth", priest counters with "no no no, life begins at conception." Rabbi leans back, laughs a bit and says "you are both wrong. Life begins when kids move out and dog dies."

I ham it up. I do the old man voice with my retelling, and I exaggerate the suffering. "Well in my day movies didn't come on DVDs. They came on celluloid reels. And you had to walk to the studio in hollywood and pay for them to make a copy, which took like a week. Then you had to ravel it all like so... *mountaineering rope ravel action* ... and then you had to walk home with it. Only to realise you didn't have a celluloid projector. So you'd have to save up for one. But they didn't sell them assembled, nosirree. You had to assemble it with a screwdriver."

Just me being all ".... Are you okay?... You're ok. You're ok. Walk it off."

possibly the most accurate meme I’ve seen on this website

Use the Schwartz

Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Mom, Mom, Mom, Mom, Mom, Mom, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma, Momma,... WHAT!?! Lookit me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am somewhat of a dishwasher myself

Yep! Every day.

He is not wearing a shirt either ...

As a daughter of a useless father, I feel weird seeing a caring father. It's not normal.

lol

I thought the dude in the hat was a snail 😅
