Sometimes parents want to be 'relatable' and 'cool', so they use meme references and words like 'lit' but these things don't cut it. All these desperate attempts do is just embarrass their kids. However, if they try something really ridiculous, it brings them even more shame. They end up on the subreddit /r/InsaneParents.
The online community describes itself as "a weird place where you can post those crazy parents who post in those woo-woo anti-vax groups on Facebook and do things harmful (directly and indirectly) to their children. We want to be a place where people can come and both get support and laugh. So this sub is a mixture of both the heartbreaking and the hilarious. Come and join us. Especially if you have your own stories to tell or your own social media content to post." Below you will find some of their most popular posts.

My Mother Dearest, Whom My Sister And I Just Let Back Into Our Lives, Talking To My Sister About Her Daughter (My Niece). Behold The Kind Of Person She Is
deanna woods 4 years ago
Your sister has the right answer. Your mom is a piece of work. You never call children names.
Bored Panda has already published two posts about the subreddit (here and here) but it looks like there's no shortage of insane moms and dads; people keep posting more and more parenting horror stories. Even though the subreddit was created relatively recently, in 2017, it already unites over 1.2 million members, with thousands online at any given moment.
It's normal for parents and their kids to have different views and opinions. In fact, they can be used for growth, too. Vicki Broadbent, founder of Honest Mum and author of Mumboss, is one of those parents who are open to learning from their children as much as they want to teach them. "They've taught me a lot from feeling more confident when I've been trolled online, to how to create a TikTok video!" she told Bored Panda. "My kids aged 10 and 8 respectively are both creative, empathetic, resilient, and strong-willed little humans. We base our relationships on open conversations and trust. I think the art of listening has been lost somewhat, and rather than being didactic as a parent, we need to practice listening more (and really hearing) to others' points of view, before sharing our own views.

Guilty Has Punished
Broadbent acknowledges that parents have the responsibility to inform, protect, and guide their kids, however, she thinks that children who feel endlessly chastised and forced to conform will do the complete opposite. "You have more chance of persuading your children to do the right thing if you are calm in the way you present your opinions."
"Encouraging children to talk to you honestly without judgement means they will always come to you when they're in trouble. It's also healthy they learn that no one will ever always agree with one another. Another lost art is that of debating!"
When Rebekah Tayebi, a clinical therapist and family coach, looks at toxic family systems, one thing that becomes really evident to her is seeing that the children are more attuned to the needs of the parents. That means, the typical parent-child relationship is inverted and there's confusion about what appropriate boundaries should be in place.
"The hard part for children in these environments is that which is like so many of us, is that we might start to mirror the dysfunction that we're seeing," Tayebi said. That's the reason why it's so important to start to catch negative patterns in the moment and try to eradicate them.
#3
I Feel Like This Applies A Lot For The Parents On Here
"Parenting is hard, there's no manual, we're all simply trying to navigate our children through choppy waters and this ever challenging life to be kind and strong," Broadbent concluded. "We also want them to have fun. Childhood is precious. I also think showing my own children my own vulnerabilities has encouraged greater empathy in them and they've understood early on that I'm a real human being not a womb on legs."
What some parents apparently forget is that they need their kids just as much as their little ones need them. When Broadbent had a big operation on her thyroid, for example, she was amazed to find just how much her children can support her during a difficult time.
I don't know, maybe some of the parent-child relationships we see on r/InsaneParents are beyond saving. But I hope they can at least act as a reminder for the rest of us to cherish ours.

My parents separated when I was in my teens. My mother got dumped with 5 kids and no child support. We were homeless for about 8 months, living with various relatives. She worked very hard to support us. I found out years later that he was getting disability pay from the government for not just himself but all 5 of us kids. He was always a selfish pr*ck.

My great-nephew's father did this--he found out he didn't have to pay child support if he gave his parental rights (the great-nephew was 11 and a great kid). I represented my niece for free and told him he needed to consult an attorney himself before he agreed to it. He did it anyway, then when her new husband tried to adopt the great-nephew, he contested it and demanded the boy's medical and school records, along with the right to visit him. Sorry, you gave up your right to those, jerk.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - this is why I hate when people are pushing the "Everyone should respect their parents" idea. Yes - there are many great parents and they deserve recognition, respect and care. But there are also, unfortunately, many parents like these and their children deserve support and understanding when they decide to stop seeing them and cease contact. If you're in that situation - I admire you, it's immensely tough to stand up to your parents and even harder to actually cut them out of your lives. May you find better people to have around who'll make your family. Because blood doesn't make a family. Love does.

Dear Pineapple and flowers, Thank you for reaching out. Just like you said to all those other kids, you do not deserve this. This is not your fault. The abuser is at fault, the abuser is responsible. You have done nothing wrong. You deserve love and respect over and over again, only love.

Aaaaaand now I feel like a rockstar parent. I had a few doosies from my own childhood. 'You're ruining my marriage' when severe depression was making it difficult to get out of bed in time to do my morning chores and make it to the bus stop on time. This was said while basically shoving me out of a moving car down the street from my school. And 'I hope you got that out of your system' when coming out that a friend of mine had been more than just a friend. Then there was that time when my step dad called me a whore when I went home for Christmas. Fun times! I remind myself of how these, and many other incidents, felt any time I feel myself loosing my patience with my own kids. Abuse causes lifelong damage and I refuse to perpetuate that cycle.

Big difference between disciplining children (i.e. teaching them manners and good behaviour) and abusing children. Physical discipline is unnecessary - just a bit of common sense and communication with your kids. Most people these days seem too afraid to even raise their voice to the kid, and then wonder why the children turn out so awful and uncontrollable (which doesn't help the kid at all in their future lives).
Reginald Joseph 4 years ago
The two worst kinds of parents are authoritarian and absent/permissive. You get the screaming, bullying abusive and inconsistent in the authoritarian and the absent, inconsistent, "shrug" neglectful from the permissive. There is a vast field of positive between those two poles.

To everyone else who's suffering abuse at the hands of a parent/guardian, I want you to know that you don't have to be grateful that it's not worse. I'm aware that many of my stepmom's actions don't even get close to some of the things I see here, but that still doesn't make her a good person: she tried to punish one of her kids for having suicidal thoughts, and is very backhanded about how she supports my transgender (FTM) stepbrother. (I'm also a closeted FTM, and she's one of the very reasons I'm closeted.)

It is so unfortunate that too many damaged people are not self-aware. Instead of seeking help, they go on to have children and to pass that damage along to the next generation. My family was the same. I am 57 now, and in the decades since my childhood I have learned: that I have to be responsible for healing myself, and for finding my own love sources; that my parents were also damaged and abused as children; to have compassion for my parents' suffering without denying the real pain and anger that I still feel; to thank my parents for giving me life itself. Without life, none of my journey would have been possible. I wish ultimate love and calm, a life free from abuse and toxic relationships, and a fruitful uplifting journey to all of us: children who suffer beyond imagination.
