raising kids

Parenting is a lot of things, but it sure as hell ain't glamorous. These texts manage to capture the laughs, the exhaustion, and the poopy truths of raising children. We just hope they don't trigger you too much.

Parenting is a struggle when things are "normal." But the struggle has increased tenfold with many parents having to watch over their children 24/7 in lockdown. We know it's tough, but sometimes you just have to sit back and laugh at the insanity. Hopefully these tweets will help you do just that.

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.

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.

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. 

People often talk about what a blessing it is to procreate, to bring life into this arguably scary world. But most of us know the truth. Sleepless nights. Nonexistent social lives. Pain. Poop. These are the real joys of parenting. And these memes really say it all.
