The 13 best parenting tweets of the week

With summer break in full swing for many, parents are spending a lot more time with their kids — hence, they have a lot more fodder for Twitter. From tortilla-chip-eating ghosts to babyless breastfeeding, here are the best parenting tweets for the week of June 8-14, 2019.

1. Summer vacation = Double the snack consumption

Summer parenting status: Been hiding in the bathroom for an hour because my kids won’t stop asking me for snacks.

2. When your toddler tells it like it is.

Toddler: What are you doing with that box?

Me: Ummm, putting it in the trash.

Toddler: Make sure you put in the recycle NOT the dirty garbage.

Me: pic.twitter.com/KGhW1yLKOa

3. If you don’t have a “Not Me” living with you, are you even a parent?

4. Sometimes kids are straight trailblazers.

4: Ugh. I can’t get the wrapper off my Starburst.

Me: I guess you can’t eat it.

4: Don’t you mean you guess I’ll have to eat the wrapper?

5. Who’s hungry?

My kids were nagging me to buy them a treat at the pool, so I told them there was only broccoli ice cream available. Problem solved. #LieLikeAParent #ad

8. When you think of it that way…

I used to be afraid my 3 yo would lock me out of the house if I ran out back real quick to do something. After the 2nd day of summer break, I’m kind of hoping he does. I could use some alone time.

9. Now THAT is what we call meta.

“It’s stupid to believe you lose your identity as a parent”, Ethan’s Mom said at the park

10. Karma works in funny ways, huh?

“Have a great day, ask good questions!” – Me, at 7:30am

“Mom, do hammerhead sharks hammer things?” – 4 year old, at 9:05pm

I brought this on myself.

11. When the kid is three sheets to the wind — er, a toddler.

Me: uh bartender? This one needs to be cut off…

1yo: *trips over his feet, stumbles giggling into me, and then punches his stuffed bear in the face*

12. Just missing one important thing.

I am "sat down to nurse the baby but forgot to bring the baby" level tired today

13. Seriously, are we there yet?

Hours in a day: 24

Hours in the day before you go on vacation without your kids: 107
