The Hilarious Parents of Twitter on the Chaos of the School Year’s End

The school year is wrapping up. Dun dun DUN. Kids are buzzing with excitement, while parents are feeling a mix of terror, exhaustion, and just plain done. Teachers? This is basically their moment to shine, and after a grueling year, they totally deserve it.

Sure, summer has its perks. There’s fun to be had, but those final weeks leading up to freedom can turn into a unique kind of misery for everyone involved. Parents are over the daily grind of homework, lunch prep, and endless fundraising. But let’s be real—entertaining kids all summer long can turn into a massive challenge, especially when the boredom hits by day one. Those last few weeks of school are the ultimate bittersweet experience. Thankfully, the witty parents of Twitter are right there with us, sipping boxed wine and counting down the days until our so-called freedom begins.

  1. Teachers, Do What You Must. No judgments here. Just keep them alive and out of our hair for a few more weeks, please!
  2. Loophole Alert! They can’t just abandon him there. We might have found a clever workaround.
  3. No Wall Can Save You. Even the bravest souls would tremble at the thought of two long months with bored kids. All men must die… and all kids will be bored by summer’s first day.
  4. Running Around Like Headless Chickens. As if losing our freedom isn’t enough, we’re sprinting to a million end-of-year activities. Isn’t the arrival of summer vacation celebration enough?
  5. Theme Days? Really? Seriously? Dress up as a different literary character every day this week? How about just wearing clothes? That’s my only goal in May, school.
  6. Desperation Mode Activated. Nothing is off the table now. Maybe a lap dance for the bus driver will keep him picking them up all summer long.
  7. The Endless Summer Struggle. Summer days feel like years, while minutes drag on for hours. No activity list will save us—thank goodness for wine.
  8. Duct Tape to the Rescue! Why invest in new school clothes for just a few weeks when they’ll spend the summer in a bathing suit and some old basketball shorts?
  9. 15 Minutes Late Is the New On Time. By May, we’re just grateful we got them there at all. Brushed teeth and being somewhat on time are bonuses.
  10. The Love for School. Oh, how we adore it. We’ll do any amount of homework, JUST TAKE THEM BACK, PLEASE!
  11. Creative Cooking. Who knew croutons could be a meal? Toss in some old soy sauce packets, and voilà—a balanced dinner!
  12. Name Your Price, Summer Camps. We’ll pay anything for a few hours of peace. That golden silence from 9 AM to noon could save our sanity.
  13. Phoning It In. Just get it done, whatever it takes.
  14. Bye, Felicia. May parenting versus September parenting in a nutshell.
