40 Hilarious Tweets About Raising Children From Exhausted Parents Trying Their Best

We are grateful to parents who go online to decompress after a long day of work and caring for their children. The chaos of raising kids may be stressful for them, but it brings so much amusement for us spectators.

From unsuccessfully stopping their children from wading into a random park puddle to bedtime battles, these posts offer snippets into the roller coaster ride that is raising children. There is never a dull day when children are involved.

They swing from manipulating their parents to get what they want or throwing historic tantrums that would put the Greek gods to shame. These tweets, or posts in the post-Dorsey era of Twitter, capture the universal truths of parenthood.

They resonate with exhausted parents across the globe who find solace in the shared laughter amidst the chaos that is their home. Whether it's the absurdity of toddler logic or the unexpected wisdom gleaned from children's observations, funny parenting tweets offer an exasperated kind of amusement.

Parents camp under these tweets to trade stories about their kids that are more absurd than the last. It would be difficult for them to believe if their parents didn't applaud how painfully real these experiences are.

If your children are old enough to understand that they can't just barge in the bathroom to tell you about the fairy they think is magically packing their lunches, then you have enough alone time to read these 40 tweets. If not, we'll wait for you to share your hilarious parenting experiences.
