Much like a child , I , too , would eff a little dainty after doing all the chore I definitely do not desire to do .
The other day, I was scrolling on TikTok when my For You page showed me videos full of life hacks for parents. As someone who most certainly doesn’t have kids, I alllllmost swiped away, but out of curiosity, I decided to stick around. Y’all…I did not expect to end this video thinking,Wow, I should try these out on myself.
So that got me thinking:What other genius life hacks am I missing out on that are perhaps now second nature to people with kids?Now, parents of BuzzFeed — this is where you come in. What life hacks did you learn from being a parent that you actually use to make your own adult life easier?
Maybe having kids made you realize the true versatility of having wet wipes on you at all times — for your little one’s messes and your own.
Perhaps you turned doing chores into a fun, rewards-based game to motivate your kids to do them, and found that the same game helps you get through your own chores when you’re 100% not in the mood.
Or maybe it’s something a little more specific — like you learned from your kids' arts and crafts that cleaning up glitter is wayyy easier with a lint roller, and so is cleaning up a bunch of other things in your life, from dust to spilled sprinkles.
Much like a child, I, too, would love a little treat after doing all the chores I definitely do not want to do.
