It’s finally fall, and parents everywhere know what that means: Time to throw a huge wrench into your child’s sleep schedule and start watching the sunset at 4:00 p.m. Oh, goody! Unless you’re lucky enough to live in a state that doesn’t observe daylight saving time, this is the point in the year when we all roll the clocks back one hour and return to standard time. While some celebrate the change as gaining an extra hour, parents face a somewhat different reality.
Unfortunately, the funny parents of the internet don’t have the power to stop time from changing, but they’ve definitely done their part in creating a funny daylight savings meme — or 19 — that will keep you laughing through it all.
