‘You’re doing the best you can mom and dad!': Parenting laughs and woes for witty mothers and fathers (October 4, 2025)

Happy October, moms and dads! Are you starting to work on that very niche and random Halloween costume your kids want? You don't know where they got the idea to be the cat bus from Totoro, but now you have to make a cat bus costume that fits three… You got this! That's what the internet is for. Plus, they're kids, they'll think anything is good if you act like it's good. It's all about hyping them up! Just like we're hoping we're hyping you up! You got this, parents. Spooky season used to be all tight kitty cat costumes and lumber jacks, but now it's arts and crafts for epic kids costumes and then a witch hat with black shirt and jeans combo for you. But that's okay! At least you get to go trick or treating again! You'll always be able to hold that over your childless friends.

If you're getting stressed about giving your kids the most epic Halloween, we gotchu. Take a little break and LOL at these relatable parenting memes. We're all family here, we need to laugh from time to time (aka everyday!).

It's the first weekend of October, you really don't need to fret! Heck, it could be the night before Halloween and you still don't need to fret because we know you got this! (If not, there's always Spirit Halloween…)
