Mom Illustrates How A 2-Year-Old Can Hurt You And It’s Too Painful

ADVERTISEMENT

All of us, parents or not, know that having little kids has its curses as well as blessings. From hearing their first word to changing diapers, raising kids is one hell of a rollercoaster that leaves parents exhausted, crying (happy tears or not) and passed out. Weng Chen, the Seattle-based genius behind ‘The Adventures of Messy Cow’ comics has rewarded us with another funny comics series, this time focusing on the many hazards that parents often face.

I’ve done a lot of cartoon drawings and comics when I was younger but stopped for a long time. One side effect of having children is that it gives you the real sense of mortality. When my second child turned two, I had the urge to start again because if I didn’t, I might never achieve my dream.” while addressing what inspired her to start creating, Weng Chen told Bored Panda. Her latest parenting comics series “How a two-year-old can hurt you” explores the various ways a child can hurt their parent in a comical, light-hearted way. “It was fun and meaningful to document my children’s growth, as well as mine. The parents from all over the world told me how this is just like their life experience. I’m happy to know that I was not alone in this parenting situation, and so do other people who read my comics.” the mom of two added, commenting on what lies behind the series.

Scroll down below to check out the funny drawings and don’t forget to tell us what you think (or if you relate to any of the situations)!

Since she's embarked on her journalistic endeavor, Giedrė has over 600 articles under her belt and hopes for twice as much (fingers crossed - half of them are about cats).

    Unfortunately this all starts before 2. Depending on they start to walk and climb. The excessive talking one is the only one that really starts after 2 .

    Except for the diaper, there's not much difference here from my cats. They LOVE to climb on something high and then dive off it like Superman (front paws outstretched making little kitty fists) and put their full weight into my kidney while I sleep. My kitten tries to jump in my lap but can't jump that high so she instead digs her claws into my thighs and then slowly slides down while gouging out chunks of thigh flesh. They love to sit their little kitty buttholes on my face when I sleep. So much more pain. Totally worth it (I keep telling myself).

    HAHAHA! Love these comics. But it does hurt like a b***h to be kicked in the crotch for women too. We have balls too, on the inside... (Wow. Way for keeping it PG, Kiahna. Anyway, you know what I meant. Hopefully)

    I know what you mean and you are absolutely right! Went for a scan once (with the scanning wand that goes inside) and the operator kept prodding them!! Proud of myself for not battering her with the monitor.
