17 Parents Showing Their Kids How It's Done

There's so much to keep in mind when it comes to parenting, but at the end of the day, we just want them to grow into fully accomplished, successful adults, right? Well, sometimes that's easier said than done. I'm not going to go off and claim to be some parenting expert, far from it, I'm a low-level humor writer, but if years browsing the internet for the craziest stuff out there has taught me anything, it's that imagination and creativity are key! So today, I'd like to share a bit of these imaginative gems to help inspire you along that funny little journey we call parenting. Whatever way you look at it, these are just a ton of fun! 

Now, enjoy these parents who are certainly showing their kids how it's done...

1. If you influence them right, they could turn out like heroes! 

2. And before you know it, you'll have a legion of sidekicks you can always depend on

3. Teaching them how to smile will bring them closer to their GOOOOOAL! 

4. And always let them know they should jump into things head first! 

5. This baby is on the fast track to being a pro gamer!

6. Speaking of "fast track," it's never too early to teach them the rules of the road...

7. Let your daughters know that anyone can be a princess!

8. But you don't have to be a princess to be outstanding!

Always be yourself, especially if yourself is a hot dog.

9. Maybe give them a self-confidence boosting photoshoot?

I mean, it worked for George Costanza...

10. Go on some incredible adventures together!

Just don't name your son after the dog ;)

11. And spend time reading together...

...whether it's Doctor Seuss, or the plans to a Death Star, this type of bonding is integral. 

12. With a little guidance, some kids can just float through life

13. Teach them innovation, and the game will be changed forever!

Case in point, this new style of blanket-fort brilliance...

14. Worried about sibling rivalry? Cut it off before it begins by showing the power of teamwork! 

15. Keep 'em curious, keep 'em learning, keep 'em busy!

16. Give them what they need to be the hero they're meant to be...

17. And remember, a little embarrassment can go a long way!
