Mums and dads are sharing the hilarious reasons their kids have had tantrums

'I wouldn't let him finish eating dirt'.

tantrums

It’s universally accepted fact that kids love a cry.

They love a whinge, moan, whimper, scream and they love a good tantrum.

People who don’t have kids don’t know how much of a luxury it is to get from one end of the day to the other without hearing multiple emotional breakdowns and having to wonder what could possibly be wrong now.

You can feed them, entertain them, spoil them and wear them out and you’re still guaranteed that they’ll find something to cry about.

Parents are sharing the gas reasons their kids have tantrums

As ever, we take comfort in the fact that all parents go though this, which is why we’re enjoying the photos that mums and dads are sharing online of their little ones’ ridiculous tantrums.

Parents have been sharing the images, along with the reason for the tantrums, on Bored Panda and we have to say it’s very reassuring that other people’s children are just as nuts as ours.
