These Parenting Tweets Really Strike A Chord

Parenting is challenging. Fortunately, seasoned parents have found a way to blow off steam.

Yes, tweeting about the hardships makes them easier to handle. It also helps new parents understand what it's like to raise children.

Or at least keep them entertained when they're wallowing in diapers. These hysterically comical parent tweets we've collated here should undoubtedly strike a chord with sleep-deprived parents of young children who just want to take a breather.

They may also help you comprehend what you would be getting into if you choose to have children, assuming you don't already have any. More goes into parenting than simply dressing up the young troublemakers and taking them to playdates.

The never-ending questions, the tantrums, the wiping (of faces, hands, bums, dribbles, snot, poo, and vomit...), and, of course, the unsolicited advice from the childless twenty-something "grownups" are just a few of the challenges.

However, parents are taught how to handle all of this and more—much more. Even though they frequently lack sleep, are exhausted, and have little free time, they persevere.

Most importantly, they are getting better at it with time. After all, it is something you learn through doing...

Let's spend a moment learning about their experiences and coping mechanisms:

Naturally, with all of the responsibilities that come with parenting, parents wonder if they are up for it. In general, confidence tends to increase with experience. 

In parenting, parents and guardians should trust their instincts because they can understand their children's needs and pick up clues. According to psychologists, most parents do a pretty good job of raising their children, but genuinely great parenting requires not just relying on natural instincts but also understanding what works and why.

So, in essence, you shouldn't rely solely on books or just on your instincts. Any extreme is bad.

Combine theory and practice to get the best results. Yes, we are aware that the last sentence sounds like a commercial for some product...

Your children are observing you. Don't just react on the spur of the moment. Ask yourself, 'What do I want to accomplish, and is this likely to produce that result?'

The challenging part of being an involved parent is that it requires not only time but also reevaluating and reordering your priorities.

It frequently entails forgoing your desires in favor of what your child requires. Be there for them both mentally and physically.

And after a while... you will be able to laugh when recollecting their shenanigans...
