Parents Who Are Children At Heart

Try and think back on the time in your life when you finally felt like you were an adult. The moment that something just clicked and you were like, "Yeah, this is it. This is what I've been waiting for."

Yeah, it's hard to pin down, isn't it? I think a lot of us stay pretty much the same most of our lives, just with bigger responsibilities. But that isn't so bad, is it? There's nothing wrong with being a big kid at heart.

He Said Dinner Was On The Table

Dad called the kids downstairs to get their dinner and told them it was on the table...little did they know he literally meant it was on the table. I would love to know if they actually ate it.

I'm as much of a fan of puns as the next person, but not if it means promising someone some delicious McDonald's and then giving them this homemade contraption. They better have gotten a real Quarter Pounder after.

Their Faces Say It All

All they wanted was to have one dinner out without the selfie stick, and dad made them the empty promise that they would get that. Well, guess what? He busted that bad boy out and he loved it.

They Look Just Like Models

That is the look of a kid who is cementing this moment into her brain as the moment she will share with her therapist who is going to ask them when their trust issues started.

When you have twins, you have to do fun stuff like this—it's the only way to make it through the day. Looks like that duplicator is working great, but maybe they will want to keep it at two.

All this dad wanted to do was to give his kids the bubble bath of their dreams. The bubble bath that he wasn't able to have as a kid. Plus, it will totally clean the bathroom, too, right?

Moms Have Jokes Too

Whenever one of my parents sends me something like that, at first, I cherish it and laugh, but then I also wonder where they even hear this stuff. Is there a secret parent bad joke group chat?

If this isn't one of the most childish things that someone could do, then I'm not sure what is. Most of us learn how to curb our appetite for attention as we age.

When it comes to dressing the kids up, mom isn't crazy about it. The dogs, however, are a whole different ball game. The little tiny arms just do it for me.

He's Very Unbothered

He bought this computer from some kid and said that he kind of liked all the stickers on it and that he was going to keep them. This is his new aesthetic now.

Even if it is like your 45th birthday, it's never too late for your mom to get you a cake to remind you that you're a loser with 'Dave Sucks' written in icing.

This is what happens when you ask your mom for bookmarks but don't specify that you want them to be ones from the store, not homemade ones made that are pictures of your mom.

Dad isn't wrong at all to think that this baby's head looks like a kiwi. It probably feels like one, too. Maybe they will keep this going as a joke for as long as they can.

All dad wanted was some quiet time to relax and maybe a nice dip in the pool. But, they have no pool, so he took matters into his own hands. Who else remembers doing stuff like this as a kid?

This guy made his wife stop in the freezer section and take this photo of him so he could send it to their kids, all to make them laugh. It probably worked, too.

Where Did He Even Get This?

No one likes cutting onions because they always make you cry. But this mom is not going to let that stop her. She's got a trick up her sleeve like so many moms do.

When your son hands you their Batman to fix, you are given two choices. You do it, or you have a little bit of fun and make Batman have a cute little skirt.

Don't leave your eyelash extensions anywhere where your dad has access to them because you're going to get some selfies of his with a new goatee that is kind of fetching but not.
