My friend's kid broke our harmonica. What's the protocol here? Do I email her about it or call her on the phone? I want my gratitude to feel sincere.

I knew parenting would involve a lot of crying but didn’t realize so much of it would be from me.

Whenever I gaze upon my sleeping kids, I imagine them growing up to make a difference in the world.
Which is incredible since they use bed rails to prevent them from falling on their faces in the middle of the night.

my son pranked my husband by changing his beard trimmer from the highest setting to the lowest setting so now my husband has no beard and I have no son

Sure, I could parent without screen time. I could also churn my own butter, but let's not get crazy here.

Parenting is 70% me yelling, 20% asking the kids why they’re yelling, & 10% trying to find where I left my coffee.

My kids made cardboard computers: I'm glad they're so imaginative and equally disturbed that even their creative play involves screen time.

Took my son to the eye doctor & was asked “how much screen time do you allow?”

I am trying to limit my kids' screen time, which is why today we're going to a movie.

The cat keeps stepping on the surge protector switch and shutting off the television.
My cat is better at enforcing screen time limits than I am.

Yeah, I could restrict my kids' screen time, sure, but I just don't want to be the kind of parent who *limits* her children, ya know? Right, yeah, I want them to feel limitless, that's all...

Are we all done pretending we try to limit screen time?

Random dad: Do you limit your kids' screen time?
Me: I gave up.
Him: Why?
Me: It increased their scream time.
