Having kids at home all the time can be a struggle. Sure, it seems easy, but it doesn’t always turn out that way.
Between trying to work from home with the kids around to doing your best at homeschooling them, things can get interesting.
Things can also get oh so incredibly frustrating.
Here are fifty parents who are just about to give up:
#1 A written declaration of war
Having the kids home all the time can be a struggle. These parents found out the hard way when they were presented with this declaration of war to sign.
#3 When you find out you’re raising a serial killer
“Don’t put your brother in the oven!” These are words no parent expects to say ever. At least it’s only a pretend oven. Let’s hope there are child safety locks on the real one.
Germs happen, especially with kids. However, when they happen to this degree in the middle of a pandemic, it might be time to skip that slice of cake…maybe even when not in the middle of a pandemic.
Her daughter swears that the pile of chalk is a turtle. She also demands that you give attention to the turtle. Are you ready to read stories to a pile of chalk?
She dressed her kid up as Frida for an art project for his class. It turns out the project was supposed to be a drawing. The kids were always saying the instructions in art class were hard to follow. Now we believe.
They thought it was safe to let their child run down the hallway for a minute. They forgot that the kitchen was on that same hallway. Yes, that’s a hand-print.
This heroic parent is just trying to work and provide for her family during the coronavirus. The Spider-Man perched on the table behind her as a distraction is not helping at all.
It can be hard to find a hairdresser that is open. In fact, it’s been impossible in many cases due to restrictions. This, however, is not the solution. And yes, she did it to herself.
If you hold babies and toddlers enough, you will eventually get a finger in your eye. That’s life. However, this mom lost the top layer of her cornea. Ouch. Parenting in these times should come with hazard pay.
Sometimes kids fight. Sometimes they even bite. But how do you give them a timeout or separate them if it’s only one kid, he bites himself, and then he cries about it?
No matter what they tried, there was a blockage in the toilet. Finally, one frustrated parent broke the ceramic to find out why. This is what they discovered.
We do not want to know how this happened. We do not want to know how long it took to get out of the carpet. There are so many things we genuinely do not want to know.
