Wat deze ouders zeggen over het opvoeden van dochters is zó herkenbaar

Meisjes zijn geweldig en een pain in the ass tegelijkertijd. Ze kletsen de oren van je hoofd, schoppen drama en marineren zichzelf het liefst in glitter.

Het is niet zo dat een meisje opvoeden moeilijker is dan een zoon, maar het is wel anders. De tweets van deze ouders van dochters hadden dan ook niet accurater kunnen zijn.

We willen zelfverzekerde vrouwen grootbrengen, maar dat proces gelieve wel overleven.

1day I’ll be thankful my daughter is an independent iron willed human w/an unrelenting strong voice,but not today, not in this grocery store

En er valt geen speld tussen te krijgen.

They say women speak 20,000 words a day but I have a 5 yo daughter who gets that shit done by breakfast.

Ze zitten vol verhalen ook.

Dad, can I tell a story?
Sure.

Okay, wrap it up.
*15 minutes later*
Okay, honey.
*24 minutes later*
Okaaay, swe

VOL verhalen.

You know that thing where your daughter has been talking for so long that your eyeballs actually start to buzz & then you realize that she’s only 3 years old & you’re not really sure how you’re ever going to make it until she becomes a teenager & stops talking to you altogether?

Ze lijken meer op je dan je denkt.

5yo and her friend just ended an argument by deciding they would “have a piece of cheese and calm down”

So, yeah, she’s mine.

En dat is ook meteen het probleem.

Toddler: *crying bc it isn’t her turn with the princess crown*

Me: Sweetie, you need to share

Husband: Just give her the crown, you’re 35

We willen er zeker van zijn dat ze fatsoenlijke levensvaardigheden meekrijgen.

I’m preparing my daughter for puberty by teaching her to eat frosting out of the can when she feels sad.

— MyMomologue (@MyMomologue) February 16, 2017

En dan daarin ergens een middenweg zien te vinden.

I want my daughter to be kind but I also want her to know that she can throat-punch someone if she needs to.

We willen het meeste uit de dierbare momenten samen halen <3

My daughter and I just had a really sweet bonding moment. She asked to help me cook dinner, so I held her up and let her press the microwave buttons.

— SpacedMom (@copymama) April 19, 2018

Zoveel mogelijk samen spelen.

My daughter is playing “you can’t find me, Mommy”… I’m playing “I’m not trying, Suckaaaa”.

Meisjes zijn slim. Eng slim.

My daughter actually submitted this feedback at school. Not sure if I should ground her or buy her ice cream… pic.twitter.com/4v8Gjb9riv

Ze lopen ook altijd een beetje voor.

Can 5-year-olds be teenagers because mine’s running around screaming wildly and crying for no reason so it feels like maybe they can?

— Mommy Owl (@Lhlodder) September 4, 2017

Heel. erg. voor.

5-year-old daughter: Girls get tired earlier than boys.

Me: Why?

5-year-old: We use our brains all day.

— James Breakwell (@XplodingUnicorn) February 2, 2016

Ze zijn ook graag de baas.

I cut the crust off my daughter’s PB&J and I swear to god I heard her whisper that I’m her bitch now.

— The Dad (@thedad) December 29, 2015

Ze weten precies wat ze willen.

Before having a kid the most important thing to ask yourself is “Am I ready to watch the exact same cartoon on repeat for the next 4 years?”

— Røb Fee (@robfee) March 3, 2015

En loslaten is moeilijk.

Please don’t throw away this teeny tiny bit of garbage! It’s so special.

-every little girl ever

— Karen Johnson (@21stcenturysahm) April 7, 2017

Ze zijn behoorlijk dapper.

My 2yo said she is a grown up. I told her she isn’t, that she is a toddler. She replied, “No, I’m a grown up. I’m going to touch knives.”

— jess (@jessokfine) June 29, 2015

En soms een tikje emotioneel.

In case you’re thinking about having a kid, my daughter just threw a tantrum because I wouldn’t let her watch me poop.

— Julius Sharpe (@juliussharpe) December 31, 2012

Maar wie niet?

Friend: Just be glad that you have a boy. Girls come with so much drama

Me, thinking about how there’s no real female comparison to Hitler or Stalin: Yeah, drama is the worst

— Abam (@AdamBroud) April 13, 2018

En dat begint al vroeg.

My child could be teething or she could be transforming into a werewolf and preparing to ransack a village. I’m really not sure.

— Mommy Cusses (@mommy_cusses) March 26, 2018

Maar het is het allemaal waard.

I just spent an hour making a nice meal for my family, and two kids cried because it wasn’t chicken nuggets.

Parenthood is so rewarding.
