25+ of the Funniest Parenting Tweets of the Week (May 8, 2025)

Being a parent is all about juggling 18 different things at once. As they say, your work is never truly done. There is always a room in the house that needs cleaning, a pile of laundry to do, a kid that needs to be taken to a birthday party, or cookies for a bake sale that needs baking.

Whenever you cross off one task, another one immediately crops up in its place. It's like whack-a-mole, but instead of winning prize tickets to exchange for a stuffed animal, you win a… sense of satisfaction in knowing that you're raising the next generation or something like that. Some days, you'd rather just have the stuffed animal. Being a parent means being familiar with burning the candle at both ends. Actually, you can't remember a time when you burnt the candle at one end. It's always just melting, melting away before your very eyes.

But it's also one of the most rewarding things you can do. The business of it all pays off when your kid draws a really cute drawing. Or when they say a swear word and it's really funny. But whatever it is that keeps your motor running, all that matters is that it does. And these tweets are your reward.
