Parenting is not easy, that’s for sure. Long days, sleepless nights and on top of that the kids refusing to listen to you. That is the life of a parent. Sure fulfilment of passing on your legacy, and satisfaction of watching your kid grow up is great and all but it’s hard to remember all that when the said kid is dancing on your last nerve. Here some other parents stuck in the same boat, sharing their Funny Parenting Stories.
While parenting in itself is a challenge, more and more parents have found themselves stuck at home during the Coronavirus Quarantine. It used to be that parents would need only watch their kids for certain times during the day, at other times they would be in school, or with friends. But with the lockdown in many places, both kids and parents are stuck together all the time. Now parents have to work from home, babysit their own kids, homeschool them, and do everything else they need to all at the same time. This is bound to lead to some troubles and some funny parenting stories.
Here are some of the best Funny Parenting Stories from the Quarantine:
Sometimes you just need snacks in the bathroom

Relatable.
My most frequently used #quarantine word is my 7 y/o's first name, in escalating tones of frustration #parenting

Kids want what they want, which is to make you cry.
I’m sitting at the table making my kid eat some dinner and she’s resisting… her dinner is Cinnamon Toast Crunch so yeah, parenting is fun. #momlife #ToddlerLife #Quarantine #cereal #parenting #ParentingInAPandemic

My son fell off the couch, literally scared the shit out of himself and is now afraid of that corner of the couch #Quarantine #parenting

That Bathroom Emergency
My kids flooded the toilet in their Bathroom over a year ago and both still refuse to flush it. And it only gets used in emergencies

Oh the sanity…
#Parenting during #quarantine is sitting through 30 minutes of this because it is better than having to entertain them yourself… #ParentingInAPandemic #momlife #sotired pic.twitter.com/4MB6Ia8rx8

Snorkeling for food…
Eating with a snorkel on? Two months ago this would have been cute and funny. Now it’s just life as usual during #quarantine I just fake smiled and drank my wine #COVID19Pandemic #parenting #parenthood #dadlife pic.twitter.com/J7oLsM0MoY

Quarantine Thoughts
It takes something like the #Quarantine for you to really reflect on the value of family. In this I’ve realized how much I hate children. #parenting pic.twitter.com/4jv6oC7MOg

Manners are important
My 2yo is absolutely nailing her manners!
Me: Hey, would you go pick up that toy and turn off the light?
Her: No, thank you. #parenting #WFH #Quarantine pic.twitter.com/r7uLChITnq— Michelle (@SoccerWife7) April 29, 2020
Honesty is the best policy
4-year old: (shakes box repeatedly with stuff inside, grins mischievously) mommy you hear that?
Me: yes
Him: I’m just gonna sit here and make this awful noise.😏 So that’s how #quarantine is going in case anyone was wondering. #parenting

Chaos is king
The 2 yo chewed on a marker. He is now purple. The puppy tried chasing his tail. He knocked over the stool where the baby was keeping his bowl of raisins. When family asks when I’m having a 2nd kid, I just laugh. #oneanddone #Quarantine #parenting #COVID19 #coronavirus #Dog
