Reasons why my kid is crying
Kids are insane. They are tiny, irrational dictators who will have a mental breakdown because you saved their life. You stop them from licking an electrical outlet and they look at you like you just murdered their family. It is exhausting! I have seen my child cry because a cracker broke. Not even the whole cracker, just a corner. It was a tragedy of Shakespearean proportions. And you just have to stand there and watch it happen because you cannot reason with a terrorist who is wearing a diaper.
These photos of reasons why my kid is crying are my therapy. It validates everything I feel. When I see a kid sobbing because he can’t keep a live lobster as a pet, I feel seen. I feel understood. We are all just trying to keep these little maniacs alive while they actively try to eat dirt and footballs. It is a miracle any of us survived childhood if this is how our brains worked.
Parenting is mostly just preventing small humans from hurting themselves and being screamed at for your efforts. We have collected the funniest and most baffling tantrums from parents who just wanted to share the misery. From forbidden snacks to naps that were interrupted by dogs, here is the logic of toddlers.
You have to laugh at these moments because if you don’t, you will cry right along with them. The sheer conviction these kids have is impressive. They truly believe that not eating dirt is the worst thing that has ever happened to anyone in history. It is dramatic, it is loud, and it is absolutely hilarious from a safe distance.
If watching other parents suffer made you feel better about your own chaos, keep the vibe going. Check out parenting memes, toddler logic posts, and funny family moments for more relatable struggles.
