If you’ve read this or this Bored Panda article, you know that kids cry over a lot of ridiculous things. Like hearing someone say Darth Vader is a bad guy. Or the fact that the Golden Gate Bridge isn’t actually golden. But parent and Twitter user Henpecked Hal has learned this first hand — his children do it too. In fact, they’ve shed tears over trivial circumstances enough times to make Henpecked Hal put out a tweet about these humorous moments.
Over 440,000 people liked the tweet, and thousands of mothers and fathers replied to Henpecked Hal’s call, sharing the unimportant things that their little ones cried over as well.
Bored Panda also spoke with Vicki Broadbent, a writer, director, broadcaster, and founder of the parenting blog Honest Mum, to learn more about the ways in which parents can react to their kids making a fuss about something. So continue scrolling to not only check out the funny entries but also learn how the author of Mumboss defuses these situations.
