Funny Tweets About The Special Skills Parents Develop By Mistake

Parenting is an all-encompassing job. When you have kids, you somehow turn into a maid, a doctor, a nurse, a chef, an electrician a therapist, and a teacher overnight, all without a pay rise. But with your new and improved 'job' description, you pick up a bunch of skills that you wouldn't otherwise have learned. From knowing when the perfect time to throw away the flower your child picked for you, or how to shorten picture stories, the skills parents develop by mistake are useless in all other scenarios. These hilarious tweets from parents about the skills they picked up might just hit close to him if you have some little ones of your own.

I remember being a kid on vacation and forcing my mom to watch me every single time I dived (read, bellyflopped) into the pool. As she lay there trying to read her book, I bugged her and bugged her until she gave up. Now I feel bad, but at the time it seemed super important that she watched me. Maybe that's how this dad feels.

Oh, the joys of the nightly teeth brushing routine with kids. You attempt to let them do it themselves (for fear of a tantrum), watch them swallow the toothpaste, insist that you brush their teeth for them, have them refuse, and then chase them around the house for half an hour until you give up. Every. Single. Night.
