Full House, Malcolm in the Middle, Fresh Prince, any Mary Kate and Ashley movie. They all made me want to be part of a big family with lots of siblings pulling pranks and sharing endless laughs. Well, the jokes on us. If you're a parent, you know what I mean. Having kids is the best, if that's what you want, but it also includes requirements that you don't really understand until you're in the thick of it.

Why is my kid asking me the same question for the thousandth time? Why do I hear my kid awake in their room after bedtime was two hours ago? Will we make it to school without forgetting something today? Will my husband come save me halfway through school pickup? Remember that you're not alone in this crazy world of parenting. I think we all can agree that when you think you've heard the most outlandish thing from your child yet, it's only the tip of the iceberg.

No parenting book can prepare you for your sweet little monsters. We're all dying of parenting imposter syndrome and that's okay. If the best you've got today is giving into their requests of extra screen time so that you can make that phone call you've been putting off, so be it. I salute you!

Check out these 30 parenting memes that'll give you a little peace of mind and hopefully a chuckle.
