It’s an interesting day, when you figure out that your parents have personalities beyond taking care of you and watching television together after you go to bed. They have whole lives!
For some of us, that realization comes with another – that our parents have truly sharp and sarcastic senses of humor.
If these 20 kids didn’t realize they had savage parents before they received these 20 text messages, there can be no doubt now.
20. Some kids definitely know where they get it from.
Once they’re grown things are going to be fun.
