There are some things in life you can’t know until you know, and no matter how much time you’ve spent around other people’s kids, the dark and unholy truths about parenting is one of those things.
If you’re a parent, you know these 11 tweets are too real.
If you’re not, you’ll still think they’re funny.
11. Your teen will absolutely love it.
And I mean, they will hate it and you.
Flex on your teen for their birthday by singing "go shawty, it's your birthday" in front of all of their friends.

10. She knows exactly what she’s doing.
They always do.
My 4yo’s hobbies include holding me captive playing pretend for what feels like hours at a time, asking for something while I’m getting her the last thing she asked for, losing her shit cause her soup is too soupy and being ridiculously adorable so everything else is forgotten.

9. They need water like a man in the desert.
Also a million other things.

8. Or possible his father.
But probably the kid and this is hilarious.
My 8yo slammed the junk drawer shut, threw her hands up, and asked, “What happened to all the tape?”
Really?
Really?
YOU happened, kid.

7. She’s just making sure it’s fine.
And showing him how it’s done.
8yo: MOM! The baby is eating a French fry from the floor.
Me: *also eating a French fry from the floor*

6. It’s terrible when they work in tandem.
But also you’re kind of proud.
Pretty sure all my kids have a quick briefing before I wake up where the 3yo gives everyone a PowerPoint presentation on how to make me lose my shit before 8am.

5. Where are the smells coming from?
It seems impossible to track them all down at once.
If it doesn’t smell like something died in at least one room in your house are you even a parent

4. They can be really mean.
And sweet. Like sour gummies.
My 3yo asked what my favourite animal is and when I said penguin she yelled ‘NO IT ISNT’ and then she yelled at me until I agreed that my favourite animal was a bat and I don’t like bats. Or 3 year olds.

3. And then he thinks you’re insane.
Those little heathens know exactly what they’re doing.
My kids’ superpower is know when my husband is three minutes away from home and immediately shut down all their bullshit so my husband can walk in and say: wow, looks like you guys had a great day.

2. Now that is a sick burn.
At least she’s learning history.
No one:
Absolutely no one:
4: mommy, I don’t want you to sing alexandamamenton

1. She learned from the best.
He’s not going to get mad at her, though.
When I ask my husband to do projects around the house, I send my 5yo to "help" him bc she motivates him by saying things like:
"I don't think you're strong enough to carry that box."
"You're going so slow."
"Why did you drop those screws on the ground like that?"

I think they’re funny and they make me want to cry and make another cup of coffee.
Two reasons… first, I know these are so true. Second, I like caffeine and I need more of that to get through the day.
Okay, but enough about me! Let’s hear what you have to say!
Let us know which of these speaks to your soul… in the comments!
