‘You’re doing the best you can mom and dad!': Parenting laughs and woes for witty mothers and fathers (January 31, 2026)

These memes will fill any exhausted parent with energy fueled by LOLs!

That's right, we're sticking with that. There might not be any medical facts behind that, but there are medical facts about how laughing is healthy. So let's get some good belly LOLs in and have you in tip-top shape to wrangle those little ones! It's important to laugh with your kids, but it is also important to laugh with yourself. Seriously, how many Bluey jokes can you laugh at, anyway? Get some parenting humor into the rotation of LOLs!

It is important for your kids to see you smiling and laughing. How are they supposed to know not to take life too seriously and that happiness comes with laughter if you don't show them that? LOLing with or around your kids will have a great impact on them! Are we child psychologists? No, but we have common sense and eyeballs. And it is obvious that laughing in front of a child gives them a sense of happiness, and isn't that all parents want for their kids? For them to be happy and live a happy life? What makes a life happier than laughter?!

Sure, we understand there are times you shouldn't laugh in front of your kids because that might teach them the wrong lesson. Like, don't laugh when they throw their shoe at the Karen being entitled to the cashier in front of you in line. We agree that we absolutely love that and wish we'd see more toddlers throwing shoes at entitled strangers, but we can't teach them that throwing things is good. Even if you want to laugh at that action so badly. So laugh at these memes instead!

Parenting memes will be your savior as a mom or dad. After an exhausting day of keeping your little ones alive and happy, you're in desperate need of LOLs. Even if it's just a sleepy little “hehe” shared between you and your partner right before bed. A little, “hehe that is so you, honey!” can really make or break you. Again, we're not therapists or psychologists, we're just really big meme advocates and if you can't meme about it, then there is a serious problem there…

So let's LOL, embrace the funny, and make fun of yourself as a parent! It will keep you happy and sane. Just enough to handle another day of high-energy toddlers bouncing around your home, making you worried/ overwhelemed. Heck, if you get your kids to laugh enough along with you, they will be so tired by naptime, and you could maybe get a snooze in with them. Or just scroll through some of these memes and get some of your own LOLs in. Both great ideas!
