Letting them live rent free even though they're in their 20's working and with more disposable income than me.
Can't complain too much though as I still get 4-6 holidays a year (kid free)
However, the oldest still burns water and cannot slice bread and she's meant to be a scientist! |

Being treated like a piece of shit by your 13 Year old - and having to constantly bite your tongue because she has severe anxiety and depression - and you know she only takes everything out on you because you’re the only person she really trusts not to turn your back on her - and because she loves you most!  |

That's actually one heck of a compliment that she trusts you to be the one she goes off on. Hope you have people to support you too.  |

Trying not to wet myself in tears of laughter when we've just been to the chippy and my daughter takes a jumbo sausage, holds it out in front of her waving it around saying "look daddy I've got a willy!"......
"yes my little angel you do don't you...." |

"I’ve got a 9 year old who has started acting like Kevin The Teenager  it’s really alarming.
I’m going to be on prozac by the end of the year at this rate. "
that's what I used to call my son and his mate (Kevin and Perry) when they were teenagers |

"When you go to the bathroom and the kids literally follow you
What's yours?"
Having 4 of the little... Darlings... Yes we'll go with that word.
Keeping them from starvation seems to be a constant battle, I think they've all changed their names to "hungry", they tell me that enough |

I am so glad I only have a 13 year old niece, who is an angel and an absolute shit with the hormones.
Not to forget the 6 year old shi...err nephew, wants everything his way or throws a tantrum.
So glad I only see them once in a blue moon. |

"Bickering! The constant effing bickering! I'm exhausted by it.
I'm lucky in that all of mine get on, so I don't get the bickering. It's just the noise! I mean, they're just always at it! "
4 kids and no bickering? How??? |

When you're not your little girls favourite person anymore and they want to be with their friends and are embarrassed when you pick them up. Wouldn't mind my car's not that bad. |

I'd like to say that it's all down to epic parenting but honestly, they just all get on and enjoy each others company! |

Yeah this is tough. Hope you get through it X. Counselling sorted mine out but it took a long time to find the right one. |

When they grow up and become less reliant on you 
Though my son bought a house literally behind mine because he didn't want to go too far
University is a killer, my youngest is away, it's been 4 long years now. |

I was 19 when my eldest was born
My boys are 25 and 23 now and I have an amazing relationship with them.
The 25 year old owns his house and has his own business. Youngest is at university studying game development and maths |

I get that with my youngest. It’s a compliment but it’s also hard work and emotionally draining. X |

Our daughter won't sleep in her own bed so is always wedged between us.
That ends half term. We're both booked off, so if I have to get up 20 times a night I'm getting her back in her own bed. |

It's really though. I went through the same work my youngest. First night I reckon I put her back to be around 40 times. |

My daughter was wonderful up until she turned 12. I learned exactly what everyone meant when they replied ‘you just wait’ to my smugness.
She still is wonderful... just a whole heap of drama and angst too. Parenting problems I have plenty! |
