parenting tweets

Every child believes they are an artist in the making, and every parentknows that their kid can't draw for sh*t. Part of the parenting package is to keep up that facade for as long as possible, making your kid believe they are the next Picasso to boost their little self-esteem. But in tandem, parents also try getting away with throwing out as many of their kids' pictures as possible unnoticed, to avoid tantrums.

These hilarious tweetssum up the brutally honest reviews parents have of their kids' artwork. 

Having kids brings you endless joy. After all, there's nothing like watching your children bloom into beautiful miniature humans.

Twitter is full of parents who are also sick of their offspring, which is why the funny parenting tweets will give you endless entertainment. Here are this week's funniest parenting tweets, bringing you a dose of reality about life with kids.

Birthdays are a big event when you're a kid. They only come around once a year and a year feels like a millennium to a young child. Some families put a lot of emphasis on them but it only makes kids have higher and higher expectations, which can be dangerous. But hey, it's pretty cute how they get so excited. Here are some tweets that showcase that exact energy and how parents struggle to handle it. 

Being a parent is no easy feat, and anyone with kids deserves a medal for all they do. Unfortunately, no one hands out parenting medals.

Here are this week's funniest parenting tweets, which will speak to your exhausted parenting soul.

Every parent dreads the inevitable question all kids ask at some stage: "where do babies come from?" Because let's be honest, parents don't like the idea of their kids having sex, and kids most definitely don't want to think of their parents doing it either. So all-around, it's a pretty uncomfortable situation for everyone involved. But, it's one of those milestones that all parents have to go through, even though it doesn't always go as smoothly as they hope. And sometimes, it happens way earlier than parents intended to bring it up because kids are curious little f*cks. These hilarious tweets from parents whose kids asked them where babies come from will give you an insight into the more uncomfortable parenting moments.

Parenting is hard — ask anyone with a kid. Mostly, because from the second they are born, until the moment they go to school, you'll never again have a second to yourself. Your days of self-indulgence are over and you will never again know what it's like to lie in a warm bath with a glass of wine and a face mask without a little fist pounding at the door asking when you're coming out. Your kids own you now, and self-care is not in their vocabulary. These parents tweeting about what self-care looks like once the children come along are a stark reality check for any expectant parents out there who think they might be any different!

These memes are for any parent raising daughters, who might be wondering where to find their mind again after they've lost it.
