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:
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.

7.The parent who trusted their kid to put the pancake syrup away...and then later found this:
8.The parent who went to get a roasted chicken for their family dinner...only to find this woman had cleaned the place out:
9.And the parent who went to get a special candle for their kid's birthday cake...and I bet you can guess how old their kid was turning:
10.The parent who THOUGHT they'd discovered one hell of a cheap lunch to feed their kids...until they got up close:
11.The mom who asked for biscuits and gravy for her Mother's Day breakfast...and after waiting for hours, this is what her family came back from the store with:
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
14.The mom whose birthday cake showed up like this (the online order form, it turned out, didn't recognize heart emojis):
15.And the parent who tried to order their kid a special birthday shirt...but the damn online form struck again:
16.The parent who realized their kid's teacher...might not be the best:
17.The parents who took their kid with a cut to the ER only to be told "Go home, it's not a big deal"...and then got this bill:
18. The mom who probably was excited about her Amazon package...until her stepson walked in:
My 14 year old stepson saw this Amazon box and was like “hahahaha what is that even talking about” and I’d like to announce that I am now ready for the urn pic.twitter.com/PMtmHJhgbe
