Parenting is not easy, and anyone who says otherwise is a liar. Don't get us wrong. Parenting is a wonderful and beautiful experience. You get to grow and nourish your very own little human and mold them into an adult. However, the road is long and hard sometimes. There are times you just want to pull your hair out and scream at the top of your lungs. These memes pretty much say what all parents are thinking.

Long Days
You go into every day with joy and optimism. You are excited to see what your little humans will learn and love watching them discover new things. However, by the end of the day, you have broken up enough fights, dealt with enough meltdowns, and have not had a moment of peace, so you can snap at any given moment.
Bad Hair Day
The difference between most kids and adults is that kids do not care how they look. They are just ready to go no matter how crazy their hair might be and do not care if their clothes do not match or their shoes are on the wrong feet. They just do not worry about the small things in life.

Bedtime
Unless your kids are teenagers who prefer to sleep all day and have no issues with going to bed at night, you can relate to this photo. Small kids are bundles of energy that never seem to stop. No matter how much we try to tucker them out, bedtime is almost always a struggle.
Just Shut Up
Parents really had it made back in the day. The world was a safer place and we could send our kids out to play from the time they woke up until the street lights came on. We did not have to have a constant eye on them. We just knew they were safe. Nowadays, parents will never know that feeling since the world is a much scarier place than it used to be.

What have you learned?
No matter how much you tell your kid to stop doing something that could possibly cause them to get hurt, they will not listen. They all have to learn things the hard way. Sometimes, they even go and do it again and again even if it ends in the same result each time.

Good Times
As a parent, you have to learn that fun can be had no matter what your financial circumstances are. Kids are easily excitable, and simple things can really make their day. Do not feel bad if you are one of those families that cannot afford extravagant vacations.

Netflix
That'll teach 'em, dad. Sometimes you have to do what you gotta do in order to preserve your own little sections of your life. As a parent, your kids will invade everything that is yours or part of you, so you better learn to be creative.

Don't Ask
This is pretty much the face of every parent, who has more than one kid, at the end of the day. Those little terrors spent the last 15 hours tormenting you, and he has the nerve to ask how they were? He needs to ask how you are holding up.

Truth
Everyone thinks of babies the same way they think about puppies. Sure they are adorable, but they also eat constantly, poop everywhere, and are constantly getting into things. They are work, lots and lots of work, and it is exhausting.

Noisy Toys
Nothing is worse than giving someone's child a noisy toy. Grandparents are especially good at doing this since the kids are only there for a visit. That noisy toy then gets to go home with them where they torture their parents with it for hours on end.
