20 Hilarious Back to School Tweets Every Parent Will Relate To
Back to school time is always a little bittersweet for me. On the one hand, I’m reluctant to step out of the lazier days of summer where I’m not scrambling to pack school lunches and my child isn’t scrambling to find their other shoe before the bus arrives.
But on the other hand, I welcome being able to work uninterrupted for a few hours, and not having to walk around the house saying, “Whose glass is this?” or “Get off screens” for the millionth time that day.
Also, I think the ages of your kids play a part in how you feel about back to school. The below meme sums it up nicely LOL…
I’ve rounded up some funny and relatable tweets about back to school from some of my favorite parents on Twitter…enjoy!

#1 Hate to break it to you, kid…
Me: How was your first day of school?
5-year-old: Okay.
Me: I'm sure tomorrow will be better.
5: I have to go back?

#2 Right?? School photos are a total racket these days…
Settle down, school picture day packages. I don't need a body pillow with my son's face embroidered on it for $400.
#9 Remember how carefully you chose that first day of school outfit?? Good times.
Just thinking back to my first day of 6th grade when I wore jeans and a sweater to school even though it was 96° because they were my new back to school clothes.

#11 Seriously…
The kids are asking for fun shaped sandwiches for their back-to-school lunches and I’m so flattered they’ve mistaken me for the kind of mother who would do that
#14 I’m Gen X so all my friends were named Lisa or Jennifer LOL…
My daughter is stoked about starting a new school this year so she can meet new friends like “Bobby, Brenda or Lisa” and I’m excited, too, because I didn’t realize we were sending her to 4th grade in 1965.
Got a call from my son’s preschool today. I had to go pick him up early because he *checks notes* gave himself a headache dancing too hard in music class.
Welcome back to school, these first weeks we'll ease back into it! Please bring a family pic, your great grandma's favorite recipe made & individually wrapped (no nuts), a diorama of your kid's favorite summer activity, and a piece of nature for a scavenger hunt! Wear red Friday!
