We love writing these articles, not just because irrational children are inherently funny and adorable, but also because they always manage to surprise us. Every time we see a new batch of beleaguered parents sharing the ridiculous reasons why their children got upset, there’s never a repeat in the bunch. Little kids have rich imaginations, even when it comes to finding things to be mad about. Even when there’s literally nothing to be mad about!

For example, a toddler might say: “Beg your pardon, mother, but these raisins I asked for are wrinkled!” and then have a 20-minute meltdown. It’s inspiring.

So here we go one more time with 15 children who got furious about something completely unreasonable. Many of these come from the excellently named Instagram account, @assholeparent_, which is definitely worth your follow. (via Bored Panda.)

1. Sometimes as a parent, you just can’t win.

Funniest reason your kid had a tantrum?! Go! This fun one here started because he couldn’t take off his pants, and then escalated when he couldn’t find the booger that fell from his nose. I shit you not. ??‍♀️ .. • (PS. Fear not. Attention was given, and cuddles were had. The booger, however, was never found.) #assholeparent Via @mytwobears_
