Funny parents on Twitter have funny kids.

Getting away with my son for a couple nights. He’s looking around the hotel room and finds an ironing board. “Whoa, what’s that?” 🙈

But, but… what?

[My kid in the middle of eating a cookie]

You know what I could really go for right now, that you never let me have, is a cookie. — Mommy Owl (@Lhlodder) May 6, 2018

Come at me, bro.

Doing some spring cleaning and told my 3 y/o that we are getting rid of things that we don’t use anymore. “Like these?” he says, pointing to my eight pound weights in the closet. pic.twitter.com/XIkAGeH4B1

Life isn’t always fair.

Using self-checkout lane so I don’t have to interact with anyone.

Scans first item.

Register: … “Please wait for assistance.”

And to finish, the dessert salad menu.

[at dinner]

ME: *pointing to the menu*
Yes, so I’d like to try several of these fermented grape salad reductions, please

WAITER: Ma’am, that’s just the wine list..

ME: Ooh mmhmm yes, that sounds perfect I’ll have that

Don’t worry, parents. I’ve got this.

Get a napkin? Why the heck would I do that when I’m already rocking these sweet-ass napkin pants?

Oh, the humanity!

Nothing ruins a child’s day quite like finding out what’s for dinner.

— Jessie (@mommajessiec) May 2, 2018

Some sayings are misleading.

I didn’t realize I was supposed to know how to do everything by my second rodeo. That’s still a very low number of rodeos.

— Simon Holland (@simoncholland) April 19, 2016

Take what you can get.

Everyone in my house is asleep so I’m eating dessert out in the open like I own the place.

Which I do, so I guess that’s a kind of pathetic victory.#momlife #momwin #winning — The Salty Mamas (@saltymamas) May 7, 2018

I do a lot of my Moana watching before 8 am.#Dadlife #Parenting

Hat tip to you.

Kids who are louder than mine on the plane—thank you for your service!!

She’s got this.

Judge: It says here you’ve forfeited your right to legal representation.

Me: *lips on mic* I watch Law & Order.

Who’s really in charge here?

Me: I have to remember to get milk.
Brain: No thanks.

Cashier: How will you be paying?

A plan I can get on board with.

WEIGHT LOSS TIP: Put your chips into a bowl instead of eating out of the bag. That way, you’ll get lots of exercise going back to the kitchen to fill up the bowl 10 times as you eat the entire bag.

— Robert Knop (@FatherWithTwins) May 10, 2018

I feel like there’s a good Guts reference here too.

In my youth, I hoped I’d be lucky enough to be slimed on Double Dare. Unfortunately, the closest I’ve come to achieving that dream is catching my child’s vomit in my bare hands.

RIP Naps

One day your toddler stops napping and then before you know it it’s been a thousand long years and he is finally going to school.

— MamaFizzles (@MamaFizzles) April 20, 2018

2,500. I mean… I don’t know…

How many calories are in a wheel of cheese? I need to make sure I put this in my fitness app correctly.

Not the only thing that toddlers and Nelly have in common.

Bandaids are accessories.

It’s science.

They say the human body is 60% water, but I know for a fact that our daughter is at least 70% mac and cheese.#parenting #dadlife #MomLife

It’ll just take a minute.

You tell my kids it’s time for bed and suddenly it’s time for them to mow the lawn and do their taxes.

— Jen Good (@buriedwithkids) April 6, 2018

I admire her courage.

Cashier was off-put that I would not supply my phone number and informed me that without it should I need to I would be unable to return the shampoo without a receipt. It was a chance I was willing to take.

— Mary (@AnniemuMary) May 17, 2018

Derivative.

Prepare your kids for social media by putting their artwork on the fridge and writing a bunch of mean comments under it.

Parenting requires flexibility in interior decorating

Welcome to parenthood.

Your outdoor rocks are indoor rocks now.

Memoriessssssss.

This one time, my toddler woke up at 5:30 am on Saturday morning and I convinced her it was nighttime and she went back to sleep for another hour.

It was, like, 9 months ago but I still think of that moment fondly.

Sean gives the final rose to the funniest parents on Twitter 

I would never favor one child over the other because I love them equally, but this new one seems way cooler than the other one.

Snacks, snacks, snackssnackssnackssnacks

Kids eat snacks like Netflix. As soon as one ends, another one is getting started.

— The ParentNormal (@ParentNormal) April 25, 2018

I love it.

My son just showed me something he made and asked “Do you like it, or do you love it?” and those are the only options I’m giving people from now on

— AsKateWouldHaveIt (@KateWouldHaveIt) May 21, 2018

Preach.

I’m starving and all I have is a refrigerator full of health food. I hate who I was four days ago.

PSA.

Summer is fast approaching so don’t forget to stay hydrated and that nobody wants to see a picture of your legs by a body of water.

You never know.

Me: *lifts couch cushion*

6yo: what are you looking for?

Me: six thousand dollars

— Lurkin’ Mom (@LurkAtHomeMom) May 18, 2018

Pretty much.

Parenting is basically just walking around your house picking up dirty socks and threatening to take away everything your kid loves.

This is where I’ll be having my 35th birthday party.

I’m opening a bar where you have to be 35 or older to get in, the music plays at a reasonable volume, drinks are laced with Advil, no one has to stand, and the hip time to go is between 7-9:30.

— Danielle and Farrah (@effinghandbook) April 21, 2018

#Goals

I wish I had the optimism of parents who dress their kids in white.

— Walking Outside (@WalkingOutside) May 16, 2018

I believe that children are our future.

3-year-old: Can you open my fruit snacks?

Me: No snacks right now.

3: But your arms are so strong.

Me: *opens fruit snacks*

— James Breakwell (@XplodingUnicorn) May 16, 2018

I too enjoy Spirit Week. Particularly the days that require very little of me.

The kids brought home a slip saying that tomorrow is crazy mismatched sock day. Finally, a day that embraces my household management style.

— Stephanie Ortiz (@Six_Pack_Mom) May 2, 2018

Let me know what you find out. Please and thank you.

Before kids: I’ll never let my kids eat that garbage.

After kids: “Hi, do you guys sell that cereal that’s just the marshmallows?”
