Hilarisch Instagramaccount toont problemen van ouders

Afgelopen weekend kwam Siska Schoeters onder vuur te liggen nadat ze aan De Morgen vertelde hoe opgelucht ze is als de kinderen in bed liggen. Anderen prezen haar dan weer voor haar eerlijkheid. Want ook al kunnen ouders niet zonder hun kroost, af en toe kan de roze wolk makkelijk omslaan in een zwarte donderwolk. Dat blijkt ook uit het Instagramaccount ‘Average Parent Problems' van de New Yorkse mama Ilana Wiles.

Het account staat volledig in teken van alledaagse problemen waarmee elke ouder te kampen krijgt. Denk maar aan witte zetels die gebruikt zijn als schildersdoek of kinderen die beginnen blèren in de supermarkt. Het resultaat zijn een hoop herkenbare en hilarische foto's, die zelfs een glimlach kunnen toveren op het gezicht van ouders die op de rand van een zenuwinzinking staan.

I am told no one was harmed during the taking of this photo. Just sufficiently terrified. I hope the goat nightmares end soon. #averageparentproblems photo: @mama143333
