There are so many joys that come with being a parent, that it can sometimes be hard to put them into words. From carrying LO in the womb (or anxiously awaiting for those adoption papers to become final), to the first year as a new mom or dad, there are tons and tons of happy feels. Well, there's also another side to parenting -- one that isn't full of gentle coos, picture-worthy moments, and general pleasantries. It's hard AF, to be honest, that can make the days long and sometimes horrible on more than one occasion -- and it's totally fine to admit that.
There's a certain allure to the scary movie genre that keeps us wanting more, even though there are are scenes that make us run for the hills. It's entertaining, exciting in its own right, and downright frightening at times -- kinda like being a parent.
Believe it or not, there are some interesting parallels between being a mom or dad and horror movies that makes the journey as a parent all the more fun. (Seriously, it's okay to laugh as a sense of humor can be nourishing to the soul.)
In honor of the parents in the game who are trying their best to keep hope alive and make it to the next scene, here's a look at how horror movies basically sum up life as a mother or father. In many ways, we are all our own leading ladies (and gents) in our real-life stories that sometimes can be living nightmares.
... and we wouldn't trade it for the world.
