Who needs to watch a comedy show when you are a parent? Parenting can be a non-stop comedy show filled with bumps in the road often resulting in parents laughing out loud. From diaper disasters to dinnertime shenanigans, all parents have been there one way or another, the good news is we have hysterical memes to remind us that parenting fails are totally relatable. 

What better way to connect parents than inside jokes that only a parent who goes through parenting fails can relate to? It's a wild world of parenting where the simple act of changing clothes can turn into a wrestling match and feeding the kids veggies turn into a war. These funny memes are just a reminder for us to not sweat the small stuff and embrace the chaos of parenting.

Things he doesn't want but I'm hoping to get him to eat anyway. 3. Things he thinks he wants but will spit out after one bite. 4. Goldfish crackers.

    Font - @dad_hard Parenting makes total sense when you're doing it but probably seems weird from the outside. My wife just hid a pair of my toddler's pants because they were too much drama' and that explanation seemed totally reasonable to me.

    Font - THE DAD The Dad @thedad Dad Law: If a dad sees kids groaning or being grossed out by him kissing his spouse, he'll do it more dramatically, often with a dip to really sell it. He knows one day they will remember how in love their parents were. One day, it won't seem gross at all. (But not this day.)
