Nearly every parent on this planet knows one universal truth: raising children from infancy to adulthood is flat-out hard.
Some of us get “easy” kids and some of us don’t, but the moral of the story is that kids are really monsters sent to us from another planet, and we have to do our best to just get through it. For every day that you pinch yourself because you don’t know how you got so lucky, there are days like these… where you wonder why you even bother.
Here are 11 photos that prove parenting is definitely not for the faint of heart.

7. Why not bedazzle everything?
And they mean everything.
My 9 year old daughter bedazzled our remote. It’s very pretty but quite challenging to find the button you need.
