The Hilarious Parents of Twitter on the Chaos of Daylight Savings Time

Parents, are you bracing yourselves? It’s that dreaded time of year again—Daylight Savings Time is upon us, and it’s like a tornado ripping through our carefully curated schedules. Seriously, we’re already struggling to get our kids to sleep, and any disruption to that fragile equilibrium deserves to be banished to the depths of oblivion.

We’ve heard it’s for farmers, or maybe it’s just a conspiracy by people who don’t have kids? Who knows? All we do know is that it means waking up in the dark, herding our little ones off to school while wishing we could just stay snuggled under the covers. But fear not, the funny parents of Twitter are here to share their comedic takes on this annual nightmare. Get ready for some laughs—because we’re going to need it!

1. It’s a total disaster.

Kids won’t sleep, parents are irritable, and other than this election season, this will be the worst part of next week for families everywhere.

2. Can I get an amen?

Isn’t it curious how the timing works out? My kids are still wired from Halloween candy, and now we’re going to mess with their sleep schedules? Brilliant.

3. A plea for the past.

Can we just rewind to 2007? That’s the last time I had a full night’s sleep without interruptions.

4. Seriously.

Why does this make any sense? Maybe Arizona has the right idea—can’t we just skip this madness altogether?

5. Sounds fishy.

Perhaps it’s the same genius who thought public restrooms shouldn’t have changing tables or why there’s only one shopping cart with a baby seat at the grocery store. Can’t parents catch a break?

6. Just don’t.

Toddlers couldn’t care less about time changes or, well, anything really. Another reason to abolish this ridiculous custom that forces parents to endure longer days.

7. The one silver lining.

Raise your glasses, moms—we’re going to need some drinks to cope.

8. We deserve this.

Kids are clueless about the difference between one hour and two, but you’ll definitely feel it. Just you wait.

9. Bring it on.

We joke about the pain, but honestly, who’s more equipped to handle sleep deprivation than parents? We’ve got this.

10. We need this mascot.

Look, kids! It’s Sleepy Bear! Open your eyes and say, “Whee!”
