ridiculous

This one's for all the parents out there just trying to get by. And by the looks of these brutally accurate, apparently relatable tweets and memes, that is NO easy task! It's one filled with struggles and tantrums and humility gained through defeat. 

These terrible people give a whole new meaning to bad parenting. Hopefully they've since pulled their heads outta their asses, and started up with being good role models. 

She needs to seriously reassess her babysitter expectations if she ever wants to NOT have to look after her kid all the time. 

Let's get a solid cringeworthy round of slowclaps going for the foolish, destructively ignorant mom who thought it'd be chill to go on the anti-sharing rant. Did she want to get herself publicly tarred and feathered via social media, for the rest of us to see? If that was the goal here; maybe a fleeting moment of fame in the Facebook spotlight....then damn, mission accomplished. 

Mom of the year right here. She's clearly taking parenting extremely seriously. No room for error at all. Someone get her signed for a book contract while they're at it. 

Parents are capable of wildly entertaining savagery. For some of us, they've known us our whole lives, and in that case; it is a very easy thing to roast call someone out. You know all their silly quirks, enthusiasms, tics, and habits. 

Okay, so locking might've been a bit of an understatement in this particular scenario. Yes, it would seem in an especially brash attempt to teach their daughter a lesson these parents took away her bedroom's damn doorknob. Let the hilarity ensue...

Dad jokes are vaguely infuriating: you kind of don't want to laugh, but at the same time, what're you gonna do. 

"What you got there?" never ends well...

She gets reality checked with the best response ever. 

This mom took things from 0 to 100 effortlessly quickly. But thus are the powers of social media to get your potentially irrational, blind rage word vomit moments across. Think it's safe to say that this unbelievable baby shower is a bust...

Kids just do the darndest things! 

The moral of this story is that you should never underestimate how far a dad named Brad might be willing to take the proverbial dad joke. What we have here is nothing short of an act of pure genius. Philly cheese steaks have absolutely never served a higher purpose.
