Funny Tweets About The Grudges Kids And Parents Hold
People say life is too short for grudges, but kids manage to hold some pretty major ones despite their relatively few years of experience. And, it seems, they learn from their parents.
Twitter is full of funny anecdotes about children’s grudges against their parents, as well as parents’ grudges against their children or anyone who dares to wrong them. After all, people may forgive a burnt meal or broken toy, but that doesn’t mean they forget.
Keep scrolling for 35 funny and too-real tweets about kids’ and parents’ grudges.
Kids are fun because they can’t remember what snacks are available in the house from one day to the next but they can remember that one time 3 years ago when their sibling got an extra gift for Christmas.

25 years ago, a girl in my class called me a bit*h and made me cry. I just told my mom I made plans to have lunch with this person and she says, “Oh, you’re hanging out with HER? I never liked her. DON’T tell her I say hi.”

When I was 2, my dad lost me on a beach in San Diego. A nice lady found me and helped me reunite with my mom. If you’re looking for a heartwarming moral there isn’t one; my mom still hasn’t forgiven my dad and I just like to bring it up sometimes to make my parents fight

My kids found out that I keep a list of grudges I hold, after I added someone to the list in the car. And they think it’s hilarious. And they also wonder if they are on the list.
