17 Parenting Tweet Posts That Are Totally Hilarious and Totally Relatable for People Who Have Kids

To be frank, many of us would not have become parents if we had waited until we felt fully prepared for parenthood and the challenges that come with it. On the same note, many of the things we anticipated dealing with as parents, and how we would want to handle them, were not grounded in reality until we actually had those little goblins they call kids in our homes.

Some children will describe to you strange shows, toys, and foods, and you must understand exactly what they mean. You will also find yourself becoming enraged at your children’s most bizarre stunts and tantrums, but what can you do about them?

Between the dirty clothes, dishes, messes, and noises, you’ll be assured that there are hidden people living with you in your house because the math doesn’t add up when it comes to how many there are at any given time. You can never truly prepare for children and the various dramas and attitudes that they “enrich” our lives with!

We don’t know about you, but in retrospect, these parenting Twitter posts about what it is like to be a parent would have prepared us better than any expert advice in those parenting books we read. Here are 17 hilarious parenting tweets to help you mentally prepare for parenthood.

Children are little miracles, but they are also little stress generators. It all hinges on how you manage the “signs and symptoms” they present to you.

But in the end, children make your day-to-day life with your partner even more enjoyable and rewarding. They are sweeteners, really!
