Life's tough when you’re a kid. Imagine putting all of your hopes and dreams into devouring a magnet only to find out that your parents won't let you do it. Or your mom refusing to overdose you on Tylenol. So what do you do in such a devastating moment of despair? The only thing left to do. You let it all out. You cry, scream, go absolutely berserk until you release every ounce of energy and collapse. Only when you get rid of all the built-up negative energy can you leave everything behind and start living anew.

Children throw the worst tantrums for the most ridiculous reasons. And their parents are forced to endure them. So, in an act of solidarity, they're reminding other parents that they're not alone in this struggle. Dads and moms are using the #WhyMyKidIsCrying hashtag to share the worst meltdowns their kids have had, and the majority of them even attach photographic evidence to show that they're not making this stuff up. And this definitely provides their stories with credibility because some of them are so absurd, you can't help but wonder if they're works of fiction.

Continue scrolling to check out their tweets and if you want more, fire up Bored Panda's lists called 100 Ridiculous Reasons Why Kids Cry and Parents Are Sharing All The Hilariously Absurd Reasons Why Their Kids Cry.

    The second set of tears were the learning kind ;) Yes, I have kids and yes I will do this too. It's awesome that you show personality, but if it doesn't kill you, it makes your breath smell really strong for a while ;)

    My son, now 24, swallowed a shower curtain magnet when he was about 3 years old. Like all things, this, too, passed.
