To anyone parenting a toddler or otherwise young child - it will get better, just stick with it. Probably. Actually we don't know because we don't have kids. So godspeed to you and we hope that it does in fact get better with age. On the bright side, you can look forward to the day your kids move out of the house and you can get some goddamn peace and quiet, right?

We've been itching for a new object-labeling meme, and we're happy to report there's finally one on the scene. Earlier this week this photo of a kid holding fire in front of an amazed teacher started popping up around Reddit's myriad meme communities, and its blown up to a point where we've got enough of the memes to share with you. The memes generally revolve around impressing someone with something stupid or shocking, so they're pretty damn versatile - and pretty damn funny.
Tiny terrors. Maniacal minions. Kids, while sometimes a total blessing, give us all a run for our money and make insane asylums seem like a sexy vacation. At their worst, their meltdowns can bring us to tears. At their best, they melt our hearts. If we're lucky, they make us laugh with their histrionic tendencies, creative threats, and inventive spelling. This gallery of snot-nosed gold includes all of the above - and might help you laugh away the pain of being a parent.
Being a parent can sometimes be the most thankless ob in the universe. Between ungrateful children, the whining, the smells, and the stress, we have to salute anyone who signs away eighteen years of their life to raise a little hellion. These memes will be pretty relatable to anyone who has changed a diaper, and especially to anyone so tired they would check themselves into a psych ward. We see you.
As a kid, your underdeveloped brain can often cause you to not fully grasp things for what they are. For example, a creepy-looking character in a TV show will seem a lot scarier when you don't realize that it doesn't actually exist in real life.
These people took to Twitter to show their selfies next to an image of the things that scared them the most as kids!
Kids really go back and forth between being the best and the worst. The whining, the germs, the endless and exhausting energy they seem to derive from nowhere. But every now and then they'll go and say something so smart or so funny forget about the bad stuff. It doesn't hurt when they cuddle you either. This Instagram account, Live From Snack Time, is chock full of kids quotes that will remind you why you raised these little terrors. They're pretty damn special, and a great reminder that parenting ain't so bad after all.
It's hard enough to keep one person alive and happy, yet here we humans are, pledging to help keep another poor soul happy in sickness and in health. While marriage supposedly has its romantic perks, there are a whole lot of un-sexy aspects to holy matrimony. That's what these memes are all about.
