I took my 5 and 2 year olds to the wrong child's birthday party. Right venue, wrong date. Had to just style it out.

I sent my child in dressed up as a pirate for pirate day. It wasn’t pirate day. She also had to stand up in front of the whole school to collect an award, dressed as a pirate.

I left my baby out all night in his pram. Forgot I'd got one.

I was mortified the day I picked my daughter up and she told me she’d had to have school dinner, as when she opened her lunchbox, there was just the stale crusts from the previous day’s sandwiches 😱
I’d forgotten to prepare a fresh lunchbox that day https://t.co/4LewSoG1xc— Jaq_W (@Jaq__W) April 15, 2021

I once sent one of my twin girls into school with no skirt on, just tights, and the other one with no pants on, just a skirt. Not on the same day. Both mortified. Still.

Regularly forget my son, mostly at the bus stop in the middle of nowhere on his way home from school but I also left him at a summer fayre and drove home. My dad beats me though. I was 'unsecured' in a carry cot in the back of his van (1970s). Hit a bump and I flew out the back.

My son – then 7 – developed a rash on his bottom and I couldn’t work out the cause. Some weeks later I realised I’d left a pkt of Dettol wipes on top of the loo, where there had previously been baby wipes for poos.

Set fire to daughter's hair at Christingle… it smelled dreadful 🙄

Definitely the time I stumbled half asleep into my babies room to comfort him crying in the middle of the night. After a few confusing moments of him only getting angrier and more stressed I realised I was holding him upside down… https://t.co/fIpuH1vNFm

I was putting shopping bags into the boot of my car. Lady shouts at me and a car honks its horn… "Your trolley! Your baby!"
Yes, it was rolling down the car park.
I caught it before it crashed into a Ford Mondeo. She was laughing her head off. Time of her life.

For a year I always took umbrage with how the kids after school club was pushing them out the door when I went to pick them up. I never said anything to the club, they never said anything to me. Ends up for a year I was picking the kids up 30 mins late.

Alistair Coleman shared this insight into the mind of 4-year-olds.
Not exactly a fail on my part, but having to explain to my 4-year-old daughter’s nursery teacher that the five stick figures and the coffin she had drawn were the Spice Girls and Princess Diana.

Say what you like about children, but they definitely spice up your life.
