Parenting isn’t always easy, whether it’s dealing with the (sometimes) endless tantrums, sitting for hours trying to figure out how to do basic math again, or even getting them to speak more than five words to you.
However, even though we might feel alone in the world with these issues, celebrity moms and dads have proven that even the most famous children and parents have their moments. These celebrity parents have taken to Twitter to give us a good laugh about our parenting failures.
Whether you think you’re on your own, need a break from your own children, or are looking for a good laugh, these celebrity tweets about parenting will surely make you feel more at ease.

Chris Pratt makes us all realize that babies just do not sleep.

“Overheard my daughter tell another kid: “If your parents ever get blown away in the wind, just pick up the phone and call 891.” #SafetyFirst
In case of an emergency, Kristen Bell’s daughter has the best creative ideas. However, wind-related emergencies seem a bit far-fetched (but hilarious!)

“I have discovered a mother’s favorite thing to say: “it’s not terrible twos it’s terrible THREES ahahahah”
Busy Phillips
“It’s weird people think my kids will be in therapy because of their names. Guys, my kids will be in therapy for LOTS of reasons, I’m sure.”
Busy Phillips isn’t worried about her kids Birdie and Cricket being in therapy for their names, as obviously this is the least of her problems.

Nicole Richie
“It’s 8:30am & I’ve already gotten into 5 fights – thugs, and parents of toddlers.”
Let’s be honest, at 8:30 a.m., the only people up and about are parents of toddlers – the real gangsters of the morning.

Alyson Hannigan
“Why don’t kids understand that their nap is not for them but for us?”
Naps are needed for the parents just as much as it is needed for the child, and Alyson Hannigan makes us feel better by letting us know that it isn’t just us that feels this.
Brooklyn Decker
“My toddler has the flu and my baby is colicky… they are both crying and miserable. At the very moment I thought my heart was going to shatter – my stud of a husband walked in with a cup of ice and a bottle of tequila. I’m convinced this is what the gates of heaven look like.”
There is no greater feeling than being around your children, except Brooklyn Decker reminds us that actually, the better feeling is your husband being at the door with some tequila.
Ryan Reynolds
“On Fathers Day, my daughter smiled at me. It was all the gift I needed as I packed a bag and left for 6 years to write a book on parenting.”

Hopefully these hilarious tweets from celebrity’s have made you feel a bit better when you feel as if you’re coming to the end of your tether.
