These 30 Adorable Comics Show Parents’ Everyday Little Struggles
We are all bombarded with photos of people leading perfect lives. They have wonderful and clean homes, gorgeous tanned bodies, fabulous hairdos, and perfect kids.
And we envy them so much. How can they have it all?
Well, they don't. It is all fake.
They are posing for the photos. It's like reading fairytales.
We read them but don't believe they are real. But we like to imagine they are real and would love to live in one. It's the same with these photos.
We know they are staged, but it doesn't stop us from subconsciously wanting to be like these people in the pictures. We are projecting our wishes and dreams.
The social network algorithms pick on that and show us even more similar content. The truth is highly unpopular these days.
That's why people who openly discuss problems and present their lives in real light should be praised. There should be a Nobel prize for honesty.
It's nice to feel connected to someone who is posting art about it because most of us have similar amusing difficulties in our daily lives. Parents may find Inna Sacali's comics to be particularly relatable and engaging.
We have chosen 30 of the most interesting illustrations and we know you are going to love them.

Inna says that “My baby inspires me every day for new comics. All the ideas I take from real life.
They’re honest because they actually reflect my emotions and feelings, or describe some funny situations that happened to me. It usually it takes 1 to 3 hours to finish a comic.
It depends on how detailed the illustration is and how many shots are there. All the ideas for comics are taken from my life.
They just come up in my mind. I see something happening and my brain draws funny pictures of the situation.
Sometimes it is like: I'm in my bed ready to fall asleep and the idea shows up. If I have time I draw a rough sketch.
If not - just write down the main idea on my phone. Usually, I draw when my son sleeps, so it's not about the mood to draw or inspiration, I have limited time and I draw as much as I can.
I am still looking for my own style. I draw a sketch first, then line art, then color it and add shadows and highlights.”

Inna says that sometimes it seems that everything is already invented, and there is nothing new you can bring to this art field, but every child is unique. Even though they all have something in common, every kid makes their unique mess and goes through different adventures.
A parent can’t run out of inspiration. Ever.
