My son will be back tomorrow from a holiday with his grandparents and for a few days it will be like my father moved in.

Moms and dads making fun of their struggles on Twitter isn't necessarily a bad thing, too. With school, housework, and the kids' after-school activities taking over their time, parents got a lot on their plate. It's easy to become socially isolated from the outside world when your everyday life is so hectic and make a mistake or two. Accepting and laughing at them allows them to move on.

Vicki Broadbent, for example, successfully juggles a thriving business with raising a family, and she said owning your hiccups is just a part of the journey. "When I mess up, I hold my hands up, admit it, and explain to my children what happened ('Mummy shouted because she was tired'). I also always apologize," the founder of Honest Mum and author of Mumboss, told Bored Panda."It's a strength, not a weakness to say sorry. Being honest about my failures with my children humanizes me as a parent and, most importantly, it normalizes making mistakes. They're a natural part of life and we're all learning and growing. I want my kids to know that while I'm teaching them the difference between right and wrong and the importance of empathy and forgiveness."

    Vicki said that her family genuinely has a lot of fun. They sing, dance, watch comedies, and always strive to seek the positives in life. "We as parents don't take ourselves too seriously and laugh at ourselves so our children follow suit." Keeping a family together is a lot of work. But offers so much opportunity to have a good time, too, so why not use it?

    "Having children is truly a gift," Vicki said. "It gives you as a parent a second chance at childhood. You can live vicariously through your kids; you can see the world anew through their young eyes, and best of all, you get to eat more candy (!) and lose your inhibitions more (I've been known to dance around the supermarket)! It's a maternal right to embarrass your kids, right!"

    The mother is fully aware that having kids is a huge responsibility but like everything in life, she always questions herself, 'Am I having fun?'

    "Childhood is a short and precious window to be enjoyed so we as parents must protect this time for our children and harness happiness where possible."

    When my 4yo is angry at her 6yo brother, she goes for "aaaaahhh you're annoying like an adult!" and it's a really serious offense considering his expression.

    Me being kind of a moody teenager now, my cousins, who i havent seen in person for like 1 yea, came for a visit. The oldest one preceeds to say "Why is she acting weird?" to my mom. My mom tells him its probably because im older now and im a teenager. and he goes "Oh i forgot how much i hate teenagers." :/ wow kid. Thanks.

    Squash the loo roll before you put it on the holder, so it doesn't spin freely, but sort of thumps. It makes it so much less fun to unwind it all, and stops it happening accidentally.

    Never say "Don't do that", "Do not look there", "Do not touch this". The "not" is not perceived. Rather: "Do this instead", "Look over here", "Hey, did you see this (*pointing into the other direction*)".

    Friends complaining about the "terrible two" years shocked into silence when I told them the "terrible twos" were designed to prepare them for the teen years: picture a "terrible two" with car keys.

    When my kid was three, she pointed at at an 80 year old and demanded very loudly 'WHY IS THAT GIRL SMOKING?! DOESN'T SHE KNOW SHE'LL GET CANCER?' and I got to see someone try to work out if they were offended or pleased.

    My toddler called water "nanoo". Once we were driving past the lake, she said "Look at the water!" so I turned around and praised her for saying the right word. Nope. She looked me straight in the eye and said "nanoo" and used it for another 6 months, deliberately, with a sarcastic look in her eye.

    Mama tells that we were driving in the car when I asked "Where do babies come from?" so she started a simple explanation a 3 year old could understand. Then I said "But what I really want to know is, what makes windshield wipers go back and forth?"

    When we went to Florida my 11 year old would open his mouth every single time he went under with a wave. Every time. Actually he does it when we swim in the Tennessee River, too. It is automatic for him, go under water, open mouth.
