Parenting Life Is Perfectly Summed Up In These Hilarious Memes

I feel sorry for parents these days

Parenting is a whole package and the package is definitely not all sunshine and rainbows. Included in the package is snuggles, kisses, adorable "I love you's," and at the very least 12 years worth of crafts, but also included in the package is learning to function on an inhumane amount of sleep, cold coffee, scribbling on the walls, and a lot of poop. I cannot emphasize enough "a lot of poop."

Realistically, you could focus on all the positives and ooey-gooey, lovey-dovey memories to blot out all the moments of pure chaos and insanity, not to mention audible, "what the f**k," type of stuff, but more rationally it's a lot more fun to have a good, hard chuckle at the swirling tornado of life that sums up parenting. With that, I present to you hilarious and definitely relatable parenting memes.

We tolerate each other.

It's one of those days.

Kids be like:

"Sounds like a lie but okay."

Splish-Splash

There's almost as much water outside of the tub as there is inside by the time bath time is over.

It's the song that never ends.

But less fun.

Literally everyone.

It's not just the kids. It's the dog and the partner, too. WHY?

The best milk!

That extra day really matters, folks.

The thing we like?

It's called alone time.

HEY

I earned it.

Also, literally:

Any variation of "mom" randomly inserted into the relentless calling.

Am I doing this right?

Or do I need more lavender? I still feel stressed.

Science!

I'm sure science can explain this phenomenon.

Why is this so accurate?

It's never ending and there are a lot of "um's."

Sometimes the only one who gets "it" is the cat.

I find this irrationally easy to relate to.

Optimisim

Keep that trait in your parenting tool box and you'll feel a lot less stress.

Doo-doo-doo-doo-dooooooo

DIE.

"I didn't come here to socialize."

I go to the park to have the kids run wild and not touch me for half an hour.

Where does it all come from?

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE PHYSICS.

A little truth, a lot of lie.

Toddlers are feral creatures, regardless of parenting philosophies.

Listen here you little...

I mean, don't listen, go away.

Doctor's office?

Did you mean, "anywhere?"

That white dress was a brave choice.

You must have the most reliable postpartum diaper on the planet under there.

Protip:

Don't ever let your MIL judge your parenting because you live every day with her muck ups.

Parenting 101:

Don't knock it til you try it.

Maximum Confusion

Don't get used to it.

This one will have you laughing out loud.

It's my morning ritual. Coffee and chaos.

The greatest joy of my week is running errands alone.

It's so quiet.

"Oh, really Susan? REALLY?"

Why can't mother in laws just shut the f**k up?

Don't be fooled by the word, "no."

It's a toddler's favorite word and not a real answer most of the time.

I buy a lot of things.

You just won't appreciate them until you're in your early 20's and living on your own for the first time, you little turd.

Kids have this tendency to behave the worst for their moms.

Don't be offended though, it's because you're their safety net. Smile.

"Gee, I don't know honey, I can't find it anywhere."

Sometimes you just have to roll with the punches.

This is painfully accurate.

If they can touch you they will touch you.

Oh, you wanted a treat to yourself?

LOL, no.

Nevermind if it's the color they asked for.

You should try mind-reading next time.

You want a piece of this?

Too hot to trot.

I never knew I could envy a plastic cow.

Yet here I am, longing for that privilege.

I always get so excited to do post-bedtime chores.

But you know what's better than doing stuff that needs to be done? Sleeping.

Awkward ASF

It could be worse. Much worse

Ah, the old fashioned SAHM cry corner.

Where no one can hear your tears.

This is why I have a strict policy:

No Legos.
