Have you ever been told, “when you live under my roof, you follow my rules”? It's one of the all-time classic lines parents use to mean “sit down and shut up.” Kids don't usually have the power to maliciously comply with their parent's wishes, at least without getting in trouble or being deemed a smart *ss. They typically just have to complicity bow to their parent's every wish. But when they grow up, they're able to give their mom and dad a taste of their own medicine

These kids really have their parents' back!

Every family has its quirks, but this redditor's story about how her in-laws reacted to the sex of her unborn child is beyond unsettling. The family nearly had a collective mental breakdown after they failed to will a baby boy into existence through various “rituals,” the ultimate goal possibly being to superimpose their dead grandfather's identity onto the kid. Yikes. Sounds like something out of Rosemary's Baby or Hereditary. Jokes aside, OP's family likely just needs some serious grief couns…

It's that time of the week again: time to curl up with some parenting tweets to commiserate about the absurd nature of caring for a little human. It's wild how long it takes for a human baby to become a human adult. There are species of bugs, birds, flora, and fauna that are only considered young for months or days. But humans are incredibly high maintenance and require the utmost upkeep. I suppose it's good that humans aren't like fish, abandoned by their families immediately following birth b…

We don't deserve her

It's that time of the week again; Time to hear about the hilarious antics of some of Twitter's funniest parents. It's always admirable to see what lengths parents will go for their children. When my mom was a kid, my grandfather used his boots to make footprints coming to and from their chimney on Christmas Eve. Isn't that sweet? Parents always swoop in and maintain the magic in a world where other kids are always trying to crush each other's fun. However, kids don't always pay their parent's k…

It's generational

I'm going to let you guys in on a little secret; I am not a parent. Despite this, my friends always tell me that they think I'd be a good mom. What does that say about me? I have no idea. My first theory is that I would be a good mom because I have incredible vibes, and I will pass those good vibes down through my bloodline without skipping a generation. Or possibly, I would be one of those strict, no-nonsense parents that can't stop bragging about how their 3-year-old has never seen a screen.…

Mom always knows best

Do you ever think about how crazy it is that you can just make a person? It is wild that people worldwide can create a human life with nothing more than their body and their time. And a big white bird depending on who you ask. While creating a person can take minimal effort, raising a person is full of chaos, madness, and confusion. Parenthood is a commitment of multiple decades where you get no days off and it can take over your life. One of the most common issues for parents is not having tim…

Do you ever think about how kids are among the funniest demographic groups, but there are very few kid comedians? Children's unfiltered thoughts seem to pour out of them in hilarious ways before they get all bogged down with social skills, self-seriousness, and puberty. For those of us without little kids, we tend to miss out. Luckily for us, there is no shortage of parents on social media willing to share the darndest things their kids say. From dads enacting revenge on bullies through cartoon…

Every now and then I see something that makes me think “Holy crap, thank god I do not have children."

Everything is totally fine.
