Ever since humans have had kids, humans have had trouble communicating with kids. This is just the way the world works.

But thanks to the technological leaps forward in recent decades, now parents have a whole new medium for failing at conversations with their children — texting — which is significant because we can document just how ridiculous some of these chats go.

Some are cruel pranks, some are simple misunderstandings gone wrong, and some (the best ones) are when the parents come out on top. Check out our list of the funniest parent texting fails right here!

About Tom Bombadil

I had a rough childhood. I watched my parents murdered right before my eyes. Shot point-blank by some two-bit thug.

So I ran away from Gotham and wandered the earth, until eventually Liam Neeson found me in an obscure Asian jail. He gave me a home, taught me to fight, and showed me the true meaning of justice meant wearing black rubber latex and speaking really deeply. 

Then I killed him with a flying commuter train.
