Parenting is one of the most challenging jobs in the world, especially when you're a single parent. Parents don't always get it right; in fact, most of the time, they screw up. But the sign of a good parent is one who can admit their mistakes and apologize to their kids when they get it wrong. One dad posted on Reddit, wanting to know how badly he had f*cked up when he cut his daughter's hair. He explained that he is a single parent and struggles to maintain his seven-year-old daughter's hair, which she refuses to take any responsibility for herself. After many discussions with her, he finally cut her hair, which she found very distressing. His mother and sister told him that it was the wrong move, but he is unsure. Redditors gave mixed responses, with many telling him that his reasoning was fair, but the way he carried it out wasn't OK. Below is his account; scroll through and tell us what you think. Is this bad parenting, or were his actions justified?

Dads often get a bad rep when it comes to parental responsibilities, and if this guy is anything to go off, we have no idea why. Not! Kenny Deuss from Belgium has taken parenting humor to a whole new level by photoshopping his baby daughter into various dangerous situations and sending them to the baby's mom whenever she checks in on them. The first time nearly gave her a heart attack, and we're not surprised. From browsing a baby gun website to sitting on cliff edges, to being trapped in a washing machine, Kenny certainly knows how to make a picture raise some eyebrows. Thankfully since then, she has gotten used to this odd parenting style and even looks forward to them. But she sure must have a lot of patience for Kenny and his antics. Check out some of his hilarious photoshop works of art below, and you can visit his Instagram page for more of his masterpieces.

Everyone knows that dads and their jokes are super cringe-worthy. On the other hand, they are precious, and we must protect them at all costs. Otherwise, dad bods, dad jokes, and dad tweets will cease to exist - and where would we be without those things?! Twitter dads are our favorite, and we will continue to document their fatherly shenanigans every week. Scroll down for this week's best dad tweets, and then check out last week's in case you missed them.

If there's a group of people who do 'awkward' best, it's dads. There must be something written into their DNA that says, "embarrass my kids at all costs," because they succeed every time. These awkward family pictures prove how well dads do 'awkward,' and by the looks of it, how proud they are to have this talent.

Fatherhood is such a magical experience, but it's not all rainbows, butterflies, and diaper changes. Modern-day dads have dealt with the good, the bad, and the ugly. If you didn't think cherub children could get ugly, the dads of Twitter are here to set you straight. We love seeing fathers struggling through the parenting journey using their dad humor to preserve their sanity in the process. We celebrate these dads every week because their despair is utterly relatable for anyone raising kids, and we love to laugh at their expense. So, enjoy dads openly blasting their kids on the internet below.

We all judge other people; it's human nature. Everyone thinks they know best, although they rarely do. The subreddit r/AmItheA–hole is a great place to go if you're feeling judgy, because it's practically full of people questioning their culpability in various situations, looking for public approval. Look, if you have to ask the public if you're an a-hole, then the odds are that you probably are one. Like the dad who posted, asking, "AITA for expecting my daughter to do chores?"

At first glance, you might think, no, chores are an essential life skill for children to learn so that they learn responsibility, cleanliness, and how to keep their own house one day. But the father goes on to explain that she does the chores because he has to "spend extra on my daughter each month not only for her extracurriculars but for her monthly supplies, so it's my way of having her pay me back. She cleans the shared living spaces and bathrooms in our apartment and cooks four meals a week. My brother said I spend twice as much on my son's extracurriculars, and by my logic, he should have to do chores too. I explained he didn't because I feel his could help him get into college, but hers were just a hobby, in my opinion."

Yep, that's right, this madman's sexist double standards is period-shaming his daughter into doing the job of a housekeeper while her brother sits by and does nothing. All while he blatantly disregards his family's attempt to intervene when his daughter leaves home (not surprisingly). Scroll down for the comments left by other Redditors who lost it at this backward, lunatic of a man who does not deserve to be a parent. As one user put it, "The 50s called, they don't want you either."

Parenting comes with a lot of unexpected surprises struggles and stresses. But it's all about how you deal with them that determines whether or not the journey will be bearable, kind of fun, or an absolute sh*t show. Humour usually makes most bad situations a little bit better and the funny dads of Twitter certainly know a thing or two about that. And each week we gather some of the funniest dad tweets we found to show you this funny side of parenting and make you feel less alone if you are going through struggles of your own. Scroll through these funny tweets and then check out last week's batch in case you missed them. 

We've rounded up some of the funniest dad tweets we found this week that accurately describe the journey of parenthood. There's something about men becoming fathers that makes them so much more comical, relatable, and goofier, and we're grateful for it. Here's the best from dads on Twitter from the past seven days, and here are last week's in case you missed them.

Parenting is one of the most difficult jobs a person can have. Many people amazingly manage to do it all on their own, but obviously the more help the better. Even though we don't live in 1952 anymore, many families still adhere to the nuclear family structure where all of the housework responsibility is loaded the wife. This structure is getting less and less common, but you'd be surprised how many people still find this to be the ideal...

Women are inherently stronger than men. How do we know this? Because no man would willingly give birth or go through labor pains. The proof in the pudding is these dads who totally lost it during the delivery of their children. Even though they weren't going through the physical pain themselves, they couldn't handle the heat. Men, get out of the freaking kitchen delivery room if you can't handle the heat.

This Father's Day, a Reddit man discovered he had a 25-year-old daughter that an ex hid from him all these years. The catch? The mother only told the daughter his full name because she was dying. Talk about a modern-day soap opera! Once the girl discovered that her deceased mother never told her father that he had a daughter, she continuously referred to her as "that lying b*tch." Because this thread is featured on Reddit's infamous "Am I The A$$hole?" subreddit, the man wants to know if he was in the wrong for telling the daughter that he never knew about her existence because it tainted his daughter's memories of her mother. Scroll down for more context into this very dramatic story. 

We've just celebrated Father's Day, where we give dads the credit they deserve for raising their kids as best they can. But every day, fathers struggle through the parenting journey, and sometimes, dad humor is the only way they can preserve their sanity in the process. We celebrate these dads every week because their despair is utterly relatable for anyone raising kids, and we love to laugh at their expense. Check out these hilariously sarcastic tweets from dads who are hanging on by a thread, and then head on over to last week's funniest dad tweets for more dad humor.

Father's Day is upon us once again. This year is basically guaranteed to be better than the last due to... obvious reasons. Luckily there are many more options if you're looking for a fun place to take your old man. Don't ask us what to buy him though, it has (un)officially been decided that dads are the hardest people to buy gifts for — a close second being older brothers. How many ties can a man possibly own after all? 

Father's Day is the day we celebrate all the dads out there who are doing their best to raise their kids and stay sane at the same time. Whether it's young dads, older dads, or grandpas, we are grateful to them and their efforts. Dads might be good at many things, but using social media isn't always one of them. So, in honor of today's auspicious occasion, we wanted to have a bit of a laugh at their expense, so here are some of the funniest dads and grandpas who have no idea how to use Facebook. Bless them, at least they're trying.

We can't imagine having a pregnant wife is easy because you have to deal with the hormones, the stress, and the responsibility of getting them through the pregnancy. But being pregnant is even harder, so the sympathy for partners is somewhat limited. These men think they've got it so tough having a pregnant wife and have resorted to being smart asses to cope with it. Three guesses as to whether or not their wives appreciate their sass? Yep, you got it. They don't! These tweets from dads-to-be prove that it's never too early to start with the dad humor.

It's almost Father's Day, which means it's time to celebrate all the dads out there and all the incredible work they do raising their kids. But instead of being all sentimental and cute about it, we thought we'd acknowledge the less wholesome moments of parenting that dads endure daily. Anyone with kids knows how most days feel like losing a never-ending battle, so to all the dads out there just doing their best—and by best, we mean trying not to kill their kids—we acknowledge you, appreciate you, and love you. Here are some of the funniest dad tweets we saw this week from dads who are just trying to hold it together.
