These Are the Hilarious Products Every Stressed-Out Parent Needs

Because you’ve been dealing with tiny humans all day and you deserve a present.

By Liz Kennedy

Being a parent is the greatest job in the world, but also the most exhausting. I thought I was tired before kids, but I was wrong. Add in working full time, trying to lose the baby weight, feeding hungry mouths (mine included, hence not being able to lose the baby weight), freelancing, and chasing my newly walking son around, and that tiredness turns into STRESS. Whether you’re a new parent or a veteran, you know how important it is to laugh in the face of this parenting-induced anxiety, because if you don’t, you’ll probably just end up crying. So here are 12 hilarious products that’ll help you celebrate the stress of being a parent. Or, conversely, these make great gifts for your super-exhausted parent-friends who probably need a good laugh right about now.

1. No Time for Anything Pin

Any parent can tell you that there are just not enough hours in the day. Send a message to those attempting to ask you to do anything with this simple, yet bold, pin.
