Most parents would probably agree that being a parent is the greatest gift they've ever been given. Guiding your children through life as they discover who they are is a beautiful, magical thing. But as wonderful as being a parent is, it also can suck. Because kids can sometimes be the worst.

Video of the Day

That's why Twitter exists — so other moms and dads just like you can help you realize that some of the situations you find yourself in as a parent are so ridiculous, they're hilarious. And you're definitely not alone in all the craziness.

Here are five of the funniest, most relatable Twitter accounts run by parents who write candidly hilarious musings about parenthood.

@FunnyIsFamily

Amy Flory describes herself as the "World's Meanest Mom," or at least that's how her kids describe her. The funny mama was named one of Mashable's funniest moms on Twitter, and we definitely agree. Her tweets mainly focus on all the ridiculousness of parenthood.

I let the kids pick out the Father's Day gifts this year. Long story short, we'll soon own a limo driven by a monkey.

When tickle fight giggling is replaced with angry tones it means someone kicked Dad's balls.

@jennawrites

Jenna McCarthy is an author and TED speaker. She sums herself up by writing, "People pay me to talk. My husband would pay me to shut up." As you can imagine, she's hilarious.

I just showered AND shaved AND dried my hair AND put on makeup. I do not believe you that people actually do this every day.

My hot hubby just touched up my gray roots in the back in case you're wondering how we're doing in that "keep the sexy spark" department.

@dadpression

Dadpression (he doesn't list his real name) provides "parenting updates from the field." And his updates are so, so funny. He takes everyday parenting stuff and makes it hilarious.

Pool noodles are a great way to sword fight your kid while still lying on the couch.

You know those download progress bars that randomly pause and then inexplicably add more time? That's my kid eating breakfast.

@kellyoxford

Kelly Oxford is a NY Times bestselling author and an all-around hilarious Canadian mom living in Los Angeles. She's witty and very casual about her funniness, and that makes her even more hilarious. She tweets about her kids and points out the weird things in life. And, as it turns out, life is full of weird things.

I miss the days when my youngest was afraid of skeletons and cried when I told her she had a skeleton inside of her.

I hope not being able to turn my door handle because I have cream on my hands is the closest I ever get to being in jail.

@Six_Pack_Mom

Stephanie Ortiz has six kids, and they all give her great material to work with. Seriously, almost every one of her tweets will make you laugh. You know, if you're into funny.

Mom Tip: On Father's Day, yelling at your kids all morning is a great way to get them to appreciate their dad so much more.

— Stephanie Ortiz (@Six_Pack_Mom) June 18, 2017
