Parenting isn’t always graceful. At some point, parents stop being polite and start getting real. However, instead of having their lives taped, they take to Twitter to air out their feelings about their tiny little permanent roommates.
Here are some funny parenting tweets from dads, getting real about the experience of parenthood.
On the difficulties of parenting:
The hardest part about being a parent is pretending like you know what you’re doing.

On the validity of the World’s Best Dad mug:
“YOU ARE THE WORST DAD IN THE WORLD!” screamed my daughter, contradicting the mug she once got me and now I don’t know what to believe.

On the storytelling capacities of toddlers:
The story my 3 year old is telling me right now is remarkably similar to the story I told her about 2 minutes ago.

On the Tooth Fairy:
The only thing I am thinking when I’m the Tooth Fairy is, “Please don’t let me be the parent that blows it”.

Just going with the flow:
Found out my son has been wearing the same socks and underwear for three days. Glad he’s going green.
