11 y/o says rap isn’t music, “it’s just talking,” so once she gives me a curfew and tells me she’s not mad, just disappointed, I guess her transformation into my mother will be complete.

Packing lunch for your kid today is so complicated with food restrictions and the pressure for it to look photogenic. That is why I recommend the pared-down, old school approach: coffee and cigarettes.

You know who the biggest gaslighters are? Toddlers. Today I saw my kid dump some flour on the floor and when I told her to clean it up she said “umm, I did not do that”

My 7 yr old wants to know how many years I spent in "Mom training school" and if I "practiced enough with dolls" before I had her; I don't like this line of questioning.

I don’t care who voices Buzz Lightyear as long as the movie allows me a solid 2 hour nap while my kid watches it.

If you see me driving erratically, I'm not drunk, I just have a toddler demanding snacks.

Schools need to make a spirit day that is easy for parents, like My Mom Forgot it was School Spirit Day Day.

If you’re going to gift a child a craft kit then you also have to do the craft with them. It’s the law.

Heard a rival dad is planning to hand out king size candy bars for Halloween so now every trick or treater that comes to my house is getting a full rack of ribs.

It should be illegal for your child to change their favorite character without giving you a 30 day notice

Halloween activities with kids can be so fun like for instance earlier I dislocated my shoulder carving 3 pumpkins on my own while they watched Netflix and ate chocolate skeletons

Welcome to parenthood. You now yawn every time you read the word yawn.

The best thing about parenting babies and toddlers is that you can dress them up as like, a croissant for Halloween, they don’t give a shit.
