23 Moms And Dads Who Just Had A Week Way, Way Worse Than A Blowout Diaper In A Carseat

Having kids ain't for the weak...especially this week.

Having kids isn't easy for anyone, so if you're having a tough week, remember there are OTHER parents going through it, too, like...

1. The parent who was excited to see their kid's senior portrait in the yearbook until they discovered this:

2. The dad who was helping his daughter move out of her apartment when a LITERAL couch dropped on his head:

A giant bump on a man's head

3. And the parent whose kid slapped their glasses...right into their flippin' eyeball:

4. The parent who pulled ALL of these disturbingly large ticks off their kids (yay, summer!):

5. And — last one featuring bugs, I promise! — the dad who bought a used minivan, and then, after finding cobwebs in the car, bug bombed it...to discover these giant black widow spiders:

6. The mom who just wanted a cup of coffee...and ended up with just about the nastiest cup possible:

My 7yo son made me a cup of coffee that somehow taste like beef stew.

“Mommy, I put a sprinkle of that brown stuff in it like you”

The brown stuff I use is cinnamon. The brown stuff he used was dry rub seasoning.

I can’t wait for these kids to go to my mama house today.

8. The parent who went to get a roasted chicken for their family dinner...only to find this woman had cleaned the place out:

12. And the mom who ordered her husband this awesome gift for Father's Day...and then noticed an, um, SLIGHT error when it arrived (Can you see it?):

13. The mom who panicked about the tooth fairy...and then blurted out something she's definitely feeling guilty about:

help my husband who usually does bedtime is out of town & the 8-year-old out of nowhere said he knows we're the tooth fairy because his friend gets $6/tooth and he only gets $2 & the only variable is the different parents & i panicked and said maybe the friend has better teeth
