For some reason, parents have a hard time apologizing. It's like they see it as a sign of weakness or something. Maybe it's that generation, or perhaps it's something you develop as soon as you have a child, but whatever the reason behind it, it's not the best trait to pass down to your kids. Everyone should be able to humble themselves and apologize when they know they're wrong, but a tweet saying "apologize like your parents, go" has proved just how hard parents find it to apologize — or more accurately, not apologize. Scroll down to see how similar your parents are to these peoples' or whether you're part of the lucky few who are blessed with emotionally healthy parents who can admit when they're wrong.

When you grow up, you assume that everything your parents say is true. After all, adults know everything, right? All those rules you had imposed on you that might have seemed slightly weird at the time, you just took as a given. It's only once you grow up and discuss them with other adults that you realize how fricken weird they were! A tweet asking people who had strict parents what the "weirdest rule they had growing up" was, has revealed some hilarious and weird practices that will either make you feel like you're not alone or be grateful that your parents weren't THIS weird! 

Parenting is a hoot. Right? I mean why else would people keep having kids? Frankly, it beats me. If only parents were a little more honest with how they felt most of the time, i.e. sleep-deprived, irritated, and covered in baby vomit. these ecards are pretty upfront with how some parents view parenthood, but how many of them do you relate to?

When it comes to life hacks, kids know how to do it best. Whether it's to get out of being in trouble with their parents or at school, they've always got a trick or two up their sleeves. Because let's face it, if they can get away with it, they'll do it. These kids show us how it's done by finding cheeky, yet simple solutions to the problems life throws at them. 

Every parent thinks their children are the smartest, the cutest, and the overall best humans on the entire planet. And ironically, bragging parents are among the worst people on the entire planet and they all need to be shipped to an island somewhere where they can fight to the death over whose child can recite the alphabet backward before even being born. One father took to Twitter to brag about his children's intelligence, slam the public school system, and promote his new book. Needless to say, it didn't go down very well with other parents or teachers. Follow below to see how he was mercilessly trolled.
