No person is perfect, so a perfect parent is someone that doesn’t exist, either. But some parents could really benefit from a course or two, or a reality check, at least.
If you’re wondering what kind of parent that would be, we have a few examples that paint a pretty colorful picture. You can find them on the list below, where we have put some images showing just how ignorant or out of touch some moms and dads are. If you thought yours were difficult, you might find yourself changing your mind by the time you reach the end of the list.

The brutal part is that in previous posts she says she can’t leave her husband with her baby because it’s the same as being watched by an 8 year old. Other post history includes complaining about how awful it is with her husband and if she can continue to be with him.

Er, why is the dog being vaccinated reassuring but the kid doesn’t get the same protection? Add to that that the kid getting tetanus isn’t less likely if the dog is vaccinated anyway, and I’m completely lost. Not as lost as OP and their poor child, though.

Please, oh please, let these all be fiction! I thought this would be a funny post, but it's scary & sad for these people's kids.
