Maybe he just wants a brighter future for all. Lick those windows clean young man! Let the son shine trough! You are changing the world!!!
Board games? newfangled nonsense! we played with rocks and dirt! back when the world was all black and white, before i invented colours!
Me when somebody looks at my stuff, picks it up, is about to drop it
I don't think Kjorn was referring to himself. My kid actually made the same remark out of the blue about his dad in a busy store
I don't understand fidget spinners as something to "help kids focus". In my experience it's just going to distract them.
People like me with ADHD need to do something with our hands a lot of the time, so fidget spinners do help a lot.
Load More Replies...I could understand if you could use the fidget spinners with 1 hand but you need both so how does that help with ADD & ADHD?
Dude, that's when we're using them for fun. With the ADHD moments we just use one hand. Not everyone uses 2.

I help students find a quiet way to stimulate w fine or gross motor so they can focus/work.
I'm 20 and I recently found out that my father kept a giant folder full of my drawings. That's so nice...
Almost sounds like an equivalent version likes on facebook, but on paper.
Nothing anyone ever says or does to you will make you feel old than a simple remark like this from your kids.
*Relatives arrive* "OMG WHERE IS IT" Me: *Waving around a cardboard package* "Just in time for dinner! Come in, guys!"
To what God do we sacrifice chocolate donuts? I will never convert to that religion.
They're free up until you have to buy a pregnancy test and then it explodes from there.
sales job interview: person: it says here you don't have any experiance... you: oh! I should really update that!

I have 3 kids who eat their food and don't complain p: it's a mirical! you've got the job!
Oh, he knows. Many bus drivers are parents. They know the relief of sending their children off to school.
Whiskey for him. Benadryl for the kids. Give yourself some "me time" girl!
If your parents give you the silent treatment, that can be a childhood win.
My sister told me to, the day before I got into labor - I love my sis
My son at 3: *shouting* Mommy, look! That's the same color as your nipples!" pointing at some (presumably) candy item in the impulse section while I was checking out at Walgreens. The line behind me was varied in age and gender. I wasn't sure whether to avoid eye contact or look them dead in the face and own it.
Yeah, that was me. I don't have kids, so take it as you will. According to my mom, except for sleeping, I was so good (read: autistic), that she took me to the doctor to see if I was ok (40-some years ago, the answer was yes). Then came my sister. Quite a surprise for my parents. But she grew up into a cool adult.
Just wait until the teens start. Every year I think it will get better and....PSYCH! ;)
My oldest is almost 18 and my youngest is 16 I still don't feel like a grown up hooray. Its more fun this way we act like kids together. Also they parent me at times its fun.
then it ends up being the parent .. asking to themselves .. why aren't we there yet!! lol
And you can't spell stuff out anymore when you want something to go over her head.
The survey must ben made by a non parent and non teaching old man
“Reaches into backpack with one hand and tosses snacks up at them”
My brothers list at age 10: stay at home, don't get dressed, play computer, watch tv, play computer, not go outside for two weeks cause ur too busy on computer, and be a total MONSTER when told to get off and take dog for a walk. My list at 12: go outside, take random holiday courses, ANYTHING to stay away from brother. ANYTHING AT ALL.
Chuck Norris could turn any toddler into a perfect listening kid. Don't mess with Chuck "god of internet" Norris.
Met a mum shopping in her pajamas at 2am. Family was asleep so dad and kids didn't know he was babysitting.
Why ever did they invented gallon jugs? That's 3.7 liters. The largest we can buy (Netherlands) is 1.5 liter. More than enough.
then peel/separate the undies from the pants and pray for no poop stains/skid marks (I have a boy)
I’m visiting friends. Made goulash soup at home and brought it. They told me, “oh our kids will absolutely not eat that”. Both ate it, the oldest nearly ate my entire bowl. Lol stunned parents. Tonight I’m cooking again 😁
"Healthier"? I always liked whole wheat because it was more flavorful.
of course it is, if you hate your kids, you would'n mention them at all :-)
My thought every friggin morning!!! I feel your pain sistah!
There is no in between, this is absolutely an either or situation!
But how many times DOES a cat blink a day? This is important information that we need to know!
My 6 mo old does that constantly! It'll be time to eat, I'll start making his food, he'll see that and start yelling what sounds like "NOW". When I sit in the chair and try and get him situated, he screams like a banshee until nipple hits mouth. And when he's really really tired, he'll lay in bed and yell "nite nite" at me (in the next room and in no way stopping him) until he tires himself out. I must get my 10k steps a day just from going to his crib every couple minutes to make sure he hasn't thrown up and try and convince him that is his bed, not red hot pokers...
Go camping, make them someone else’s problem 😎 I sometimes search for them to come eat..
I do that a lot. My teenagers won't here me yelling up the stairs, but they never miss a text. Lol
Good humor :-) believe it or not, they will thank you in about 20 years
A friend tells me that they're having a child, I always ask if they're happy about it, instead of just congratulating them.
Me: Do you want a quesadilla? 5-y-o: No, I hate quesadillas! Me: (suspicious) would you like a plain tortilla and some plain cheese? 5-y-o: Yes! 5 minutes later... 5-y-o: Could you heat these up together?
"did you poop" YES "did you wipe" YES "did you wash your hands?" CRICKETS chirping
I think that's why Lego includes duplicates of really small pieces in their sets nowadays.
If I have kids I'm going to say "if you don't eat the food I prepare, you can starve. I also prepare your ice cream and cookies. Therefor there are no loopholes"
I used to write " It took a lot longer to wake up than we had expected"
When they become teenagers that's what we call "the week's groceries".
My sister's famous example of this is when she repeatedly said, "There's one thing I'll always remember" trying to get our mother's attention in the car. Finally Momma gave up and said, "OK, Lisa, what is it?" Lisa - I forgot. Classic!
Oh how we laughed and laughed / Except I wasn't laughing / Under the circumstances / I've been shockingly nice! (Excerpt from Portal 2's credits song, Want You Gone)
My son is right about 65% of the time. Does that reflect well on me and my husband (good genes) or just prove how far down the senility path we've walked already?! Up for debate.
Oh come on...it's all a laugh what's the matter with you serious misery-guts!? Kids are great fun and sometimes a pain in the a**e, like we all are. I remember the fun we had with my 4 kids and now the grandkids are adorable, funny, little pains too. Just as they should be.
Hm...this series leaves me with mixed feelings. I appreciate irony and even dark sarcasm, but also truly believe that having children is enriching. Some of these manage to cleverly pin the pitfalls and caveats of pareting while still expressing that being a parent is joyful after all...some, however, make you wonder if people are not too negative about their current life situation as the quotes are on the edge of moaning. I prefer the self-irony!
I feel similarly. But I also feel like many of these parents may create problems for themselves by keeping their kids small or putting up with certain behaviour that wouldn't fly here. And I'm not even excessively strict or anything... I mean the worst punishment my kid ever got was being sent to her room for a few minutes! But I do believe it should be 'freedom within limits'. Direction and clarity about their options helps them develop without stifling creativity.

Surprised by the negativity in this feedback! Makes me think most of those commenting dont understand that parenting a full time, non- stop, 24/7 for 18 years PLUS job! When you put your life oit there like thjs it can SOMETIMES feel " heavy"...these parents tweets are enjoying a bit of brevity, albeit slapstick, thats deserved!
But I dunno, maybe it's a form of humor I don't get. I tend to think that all jokes have a layer of truth in them somewhere, that's usually what makes them funny, hence my surprise at some of these posts.
Load More Replies...I don't know why I click on these things, they just make my dislike for the idea of having young kids around flare up. They can hang around me once they reach the age of reason, capisce?
I laughed my a*s off at this - and I don't even HAVE kids...
My single mom with very little family assistance and four young kids (oldest 14, youngest 2) decided to get her Biomedical bachelor. In a different city. At 42. While managing a household. Now I'm not saying that Krypton exists, but I think me and my siblings might be adopted.
I'll be honest: I'm reading this from an outside point of view. My mother has told me quite a few times that I was the least problematic of her children. Sure, I had my bratty moments (Who hasn't?), but compared to my siblings and step-siblings, I was never a troublemaker. Still, she loved us all the same! :)
oh my god why are people so serious, they are clearly mostly just messing around....a bit of lightheartedness! kids are awesome and we all know it, with everything that is great we need a bit of hard work.
#5! Our daughter went through a period of carrying a turkey baster as her stuffy. It was odd, but a lovable sight. One day, she took it to story hour at the library. She walked into the room where other kids were already settled. One kid looked at her treasure with a questioning expression. Our girl said, "It's a turkey baster. And I'm NOT sharing."
I have a 9 and a 6 year old.I adore them, they are cute, funny and clever and I simply adore them. But I so totally relate to pretty much all of these tweets especially the sleep related ones!
