Parenting ain't easy. Between the oppressive costs of healthcare and childcare, and the effect that raising kids has on one's sanity, sometimes it feels like a losing game. And then your kid does something magical, cute, or hilarious, and it all seems worth it. These highs and lows are all well-represented in this highly relatable batch of memes for every kind of parent.

Sometimes less is more. This goes for explaining why you were late for work or had to call out. It usually goes for flirting with people, too. It definitely applies to interior decorating. And sometimes this rule applies to humor. Twitter is the best place to find such "less is more" tidbits. From relatable one-liners to observational humor, these random tweets are pretty much guaranteed to entertain.
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.

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.
These memes are for the tired. The haggard. The hungry, and the overworked. The parents who might smell like spit-up, and the parents who wake up with goldfish crumbs in weird crevices. These memes are for anyone who's had to say no to a cranky kid, and for anyone raising a picky eater. We salute you, and hope these memes make you feel seen.
Anyone with kids will understand these parenting memes on a deep, spiritual level. We get you - raising offspring has to be one of the hardest jobs in the world and you get virtually no gratitude for it.
Is it all worth it? We have no idea, we were hoping you would...
It may technically be the beginning of the week, but dear lord does it feel like we've been doing the 9-5 thing for an eternity. To help combat your Terrible Tuesday woes, we've put together this mix of triggeringly relatable memes and shitposts. It's said that laughter is the best medicine, and while these memes may not elicit a guffaw, they could inspire a light chuckle.
We've covered the incredible joys of parenting a lot here at Memebase, but as long as the critters as being born we're going to have plenty of content for exhausted parents to relate to. These toddler temper tantrums were probably brutal to experience, but it's important to look back and laugh at our collective misfortune.
Raising kids is truly a full-time job. Most of us have jobs on top of that. How do we cope? Wine, shit-talking, and sometimes, if we're lucky, binge-watching television. These parenting memes, tips, and quotes will definitely be of some entertainment to anyone that just wants to piss in peace.
Most people on TV make parenting look easy, but these memes reveal the truth behind raising your little bundles of joy. Temper tantrums, exhaustion, and repeating yourself over. And over. And over. And over again. Here's to you, parents. We don't know how you do it.
Motherhood is anything but a walk in the park. While the responsibility of raising a human being (or three) seems to have its emotional rewards, we can't help but imagine that it's exhausting, and occasionally soul-crushing. These child-rearing, however, seem to cope with that parenting roller coaster via savage senses of humor. We're here for it.
Some people say that motherhood/fatherhood are the greatest gifts of all time. Parents know that it's not so simple. Some of the joys include sleepless nights, a layer of crumbs on every surface, and the notion that maybe solitary confinement wouldn't be so bad after all. Of course, there are ups with the downs, but these memes are for the parents that reject sugarcoating parenthood and just want to laugh the pain away.
Starting a family can be a wonderful thing for a lot of people - kids can bring you a type of love that you've never known before. However, parenting does inevitably come with its fair share of struggles that aren't widely publicized, and we think these memes and posts shine some light on that!
Let's be real: parenting is pretty much the opposite of a walk in the park. That's why we enjoy our friend's children vicariously. No, but seriously. Sleepless nights. Questionable hygiene. Pockets full of crumbs. It's all supposed to be worth it, someday, right? Until that moment clicks, or at least until they're able to go an hour with out demanding attention or having a meltdown, we have memes to help us through.
