‘What’s the Worst Part of Having a Kid?’ : Funniest Relatable Parenting Confessions for the Crowd That Never Sleeps

Were you one of those people who were warned beforehand about the struggles of being responsible for another human being? Or did you glide into the abyss, blissfully ignorant? Either way, they don't just sit there and look cute, as I'm sure you're well aware of now. They are little gluesticks, literally and figuratively. First, because they waddle around you constantly, just always… there . Secondly, they use actual glue and smear it on your couch, in the name of art. They sure are little monst…

‘Sorry, Do I Know You?’ : Daughter Pettily Pretends Not to Recognize Biological Parents When They Try Reconnecting 9 Years After Abandoning Her on Uncle's Doorstep

‘Sorry, Do I Know You?’ : Daughter Pettily Pretends Not to Recognize Biological Parents When They Try Reconnecting 9 Years After Abandoning Her on Uncle's Doorstep

Bad behavior and a lack of communication should not be rewarded. If you made your bed, you gotta lie in it. Those are the rules, simply put. You can't expect people to ‘forgive and forget', this isn't a Hallmark movie. Some parents rendered their parental rights when giving their kids up for adoption. And I'm not just talking about legal ones. Yet, much like those pesky spam emails that keep showing up in your inbox, those 3 am calls from a regretful ex, and those forever skyrocketing bills you…

'She said they went down [to the pool] an hour ago, but couldn't get in': Entitled mom and kids demand to swim for literally mere seconds, just before pool closes

'She said they went down [to the pool] an hour ago, but couldn't get in': Entitled mom and kids demand to swim for literally mere seconds, just before pool closes

Going swimming at hotel pools is one of the best parts of vacation — and if you're a kid, it might even be the best part! Unfortunately, one mom and her kids found out the hard way that you can't just use all parts of the hotel any time you please. Pools usually aren't open 24/7 at most places. And as the OP shared in this post to r/TalesFromtheFrontDesk, at their hotel, people can only use the pool for an hour at a time, and it closes at 10 P.M. sharp, so that the OP can complete the rest of t…

'Well he didn't cheat on ME' : Selfish Daughter Denies Her Mother Empathy When Her Dad’s Cheating Gets Another Woman Pregnant, Leading To Family Drama and No Contact

'Well he didn't cheat on ME' : Selfish Daughter Denies Her Mother Empathy When Her Dad’s Cheating Gets Another Woman Pregnant, Leading To Family Drama and No Contact

One might think that when one of your parents gets cheated on by the other, resulting in a soon-to-be new brother or sister, you might not exactly be over the moon. At the very least, you might think that one would carry some empathy for the parent who was suffering, not the one who lied about their infidelity and then oops, got another woman pregnant. Sigh… I don't know if it's a generational thing, or if we were just as self-centered back in the day, but this is unacceptable behavior and says…

Ring camera "culture" is so bizarre. for the sake of going viral, y'all will publicly shame your neighbours for doing the most inconsequential things. gotta love our surveillance state lol

'Go talk to your neighbors instead of spying on them': Security camera culture tweet sparks debate about community surveillance

Since so many people have surveillance cameras in today's day and age, you're being watched by what seems like every house and business. One day I realized that as I walked outside, dozens of cameras were watching me. With a creeping realization like a horror movie, I realized there's nothing to be done about the intense surveillance that many people are now under. I'm not the only one who's thought about that – clearly, people have lots of thoughts on the extra surveillance that has grown in p…

'This time I tried kicking the flag to try and salvage the situation': Woman shares hilarious and truly embarrassing scouting story

One Twitter user shared her hilarious patriotism fail from many years ago. Basically, the story goes that the user, Kate, who goes by the handle @mcmansionh*** , had one sacred duty as a scout.

'Nobody in their right mind would take this job': Ad for ultra-cheap overnight babysitter sparks debate

Finding a babysitter for your children is no easy feat . This person reportedly took to Craigslist to post their job description. Their ideal sitter, as they describe, would be someone who can work Sundays through Fridays from 6PM to 7AM.

While this person won't live with the family, the way an au pair would, there is apparently the possibility of a live-in position. Aside from the w…
