For most people, parenting is a serious business. It’s not something anyone should take lightly, particularly if it involves raising kids. In reality, however, parenting can be a fun process. Parents just need to loosen up a bit and let their good sense of humor show.
From parents imitating their kids on the internet to parents giving out funny pieces of advice, these 40 photos perfectly sum up what being fun parents look like.
1. Those balloons
It’s good to have your mom cheer for you. It gives a boost in confidence. However, if your mom is holding balloons this way, you might end up feeling embarrassed instead.
2. Blue
Dads have this weird habit of trolling their kids. They don’t feel ashamed of doing it even if other people see them do it on social media.
3. Sexy carrots
This parent had a good laugh when her kid refused to eat this carrot because of its legs. Well, if I were her, I’d probably feel the same way. It looks really pretty.
4. Similar face
This dad was determined to prove that his daughter looks a lot like him. Based on this photo, I’d say he succeeded. That kid is definitely a carbon copy of her dad.
5. Crazy hair
This mom nailed crazy hair day in her kid’s school. By putting her child’s hair in a bun and with some sprinkles, she turned her kid’s hair into a donut. Clearly, that’s talent.
6. Photobomber
Most teens take pictures of their prom as a way to remember their special day. For this young lady, however, it was probably a bad idea.
7. Genius
I know moms have a lot of tricks up their sleeves, but this one tops the list. You’ll never cry your eyes out from cutting onions again with this hack.
8. Like a kiwi
When you’re spending long hours looking after your kid, you get to realize a lot of things. This is what this man realized after his wife left him alone with his child.
9. On having fun
These wives are just trying to prove that they can have fun, too. They’ve taken their point quite literally.
10. On point
This couple has an amusing sense of humor. The way they copied their son’s profile photo on social media was quite on point. They were able to improvise and get creative with that woman’s tattoo as well.
11. Selfie
This dad is extremely creative. Apart from nailing his daughter’s pose, he was also able to recreate her tattoos and outfit. The heart-shaped flag on the back was a good addition, too.
12. Quite blunt
Receiving a cake on a special day is great. I’m just not sure if I’d feel happy if this was the message on my cake.
13. A loan
This parent is teaching his kids important money lessons at the age of 6. The little kid asked for an advance on his allowance and this was how he got denied by his father.
14. Free car
When you’re trying to sell something, you need to be extra creative. Take it from this mom. Even if she’s giving her child’s toy away for free, she still made the effort to mention the mileage and gas.
15. Trying to be models
This couple looks really good. The brand should consider hiring them as models.
16. The only cup
Parents know drinking alcohol is bad, particularly if one is still studying. So, to prove her point, this mom told her son that this was the only cup he could use to drink alcohol from.
17. Selfie stick of shame
All this dad wanted was to take a picture of the family using his selfie stick. Unfortunately, not everyone was on the same page as him. Nonetheless, he was still happy to take that photo.
18. A prank
Imagine opening a can of orange soda and drinking an apple juice instead. Yes, you’ll probably have the same reaction as this poor girl.
19. The doorbell notes
Don’t dare ring that doorbell if you don’t fit any of this mom’s criteria. Believe me, you wouldn’t want to mess with a mom who have just made her kids take a nap.
20. When your dad wants to look cool
This dad dropped off his kid at school while cosplaying as a character from Mad Max. The little girl probably had all of her classmates’ attention the whole day.
21. Twins
If you’re a kid, growing up with a twin must feel nice. You get to have a playmate all the time. If you’re a parent, raising twins can be challenging. This man’s face says it all.
22. A gentle reminder
This person was feeling nervous about an upcoming interview. Her mother left her a note with a very specific instruction.
23. A good sense of humor
These parents know how to have fun and they don’t care even if they end up embarassing their kids. This just proves that even old people can have fun.
24. Tough love
Some parents might find this offensive, but I’m pretty sure this mom meant no harm. She just wants to teach her kids to put their laundry away.
25. No shame
Parents are there to guide their kids in life. Sometimes, they also guide them with… this.
26. Ordering online
This is one good example why you need to be extra careful when ordering things online. Double check if it’s the right item before hitting the checkout button. Otherwise, you’ll end up like this mom who received a different kind of mixer.
27. His room
I don’t know if this kid is being punished or this is just his parents’ way of showing their affection. Either way, this made his room extra special.
28. Not a suicide
This kind mom wants to make sure her kids don’t end up in panic mode if they get home and find her deep asleep. Well, I hope her kids see the note first before they rush to dial the police’s number.
29. Post cards
Parents like to make sure that their kids are happy all the time. Unfortunately, they can take things too far sometimes.
30. Googly eyes
Parents can’t always stop their kids from opening the fridge constantly. To solve the problem, this dad put googly eyes on everything inside the family’s refrigerator.
31. Not being left out
This man went to Disney World with a friend. His parents didn’t want to feel left out so they recreated their photo. I’d say they did an excellent job.
32. No overspeeding
This overprotective father found a way to remind his kid not to go too fast on the road. I just hope his child actually follows his instructions and avoid going beyond 100km/hr.
33. A protection blanket
This one is quite hilarious. In an attempt to protect his daughter’s virginity, this dad came up with this protection blanket. The daughter looks quite happy with her dad’s idea.
34. Replaced
Poor kid. He just moved out of the house and a week after, his parents got a replacement already.
35. Cash
Be careful when making a wish. Parents have a unique way of making wishes come true, just like the case of this kid. He wished to receive cold hard cash and his parents gave him exactly what he wanted.
36. Sounds the same
This little girl wanted an iPad. Her parents found a cheaper alternative.
37. When dad is alone
This man was laughing so hard that his daughter had to check what he was doing. I guess she also ended up laughing hard after seeing her father.
38. Wrapping presents
This dad isn’t really into wrapping presents. Despite that, he was able to keep the Christmas spirit at home by doing this.
39. When dad wants in
Dads always find a way to be included in their kids’ most important events. This is one concrete example.
40. Just glamorous
This man found his kid’s hair extensions and decided to take glamour shots. The best part of it? He actually sent the photos to everyone in the family.
