No. Just… No.
We’re sure that this father genuinely wanted to tell his kid that he left his cell phone at home. Unfortunately, sometimes we get so attached to our mobiles that we forget that they are not us. The average person spends almost 100% of their day (including their sleep) next to their phone.
This is why when someone loses their phone, our first instinct is to let them know, but how do we do that? Hopefully, the dad realized his error and attempted to contact his kid in another way. The alternative, where the father didn’t realize his mistake, is just too scary to imagine.
Cool Beans Mom
Parents should strictly avoid phrases that they think are popular, as the case is usually the opposite. There’s nothing less cool than a parent who’s desperately trying to resurrect a classic phrase that used to be cool in the ‘80s. But honestly, why was the phrase "cool beans" even that cool?
"Cool beans" is up there with "YOLO" on the list of things that future generations will relentlessly mock us for saying, which we absolutely deserve. It’s likely that even back then, people didn't use phrases to seem cool but instead used these to identify and isolate the nerdiest of the bunch.
Supportive Parents
Currently, there aren't a lot of things worse than your mother pretending to be your imaginary boyfriend just to make you feel better about being single. Still, it seems like this mom thought it might be a nice gesture, and who knows, maybe her daughter might even find a boyfriend sooner!
Getting a great morning message like that is quite a sad experience. Hopefully, this daughter took her Mom’s text in her stride. Being single isn't that bad, I mean, you get to do what you want, when you want, and not worry about wherever your boyfriend is having a good time, or not.
Finding the Spacebar
The texts in this picture start with a loving message from a child to their parent. It quickly turns into a weird dramatic sensation before the mother replies. While many parents can get on board with the idea of having a touch-based keyboard, not all of them get how it works.
This Mom didn’t know where the spacebar key is. Which ended up causing quite a funny situation. Surprisingly, she's not the only one who struggled with this as we already have another page about a parent not knowing where the spacebar key is. Once she finds it, it'll all be downhill from here.
Tough Parenting
People often have the dilemma of either complimenting their child or children for something that they don’t agree with or just telling them the truth at the risk of being offensive. This mother clearly doesn’t care one bit about offending her daughter as if she’s texting her about tomorrow’s weather forecast.
As a parent, you've got an idea about what it means to be a loving and supportive human being to your children, and the kind of behaviors that are acceptable or not for you to display. Sadly, this mom didn't get the memo and saw nothing wrong with pointing out her daughter's lack of friends.
