the world's hardest job



the parenting meme
for found families, new families, and all things in-between

 

 



Did some kid show up on your doorstep claiming you're their parent? Did you just take the test and found out a surprise kiddo is on the way? Well, this meme is for you! We want to see all parent-child dynamics, from well-established to brand-new. Stepmom marrying into parenthood? Hyper-competent older sibling playing the role of parent? Fake!family for the sake of a mission? Just be home before dinner, and we're sure it'll all work out.

how to play
1.  Top-level your character along with the role they're likely to play. Since this can be canon or some kind of AU, add some details as to what you have in mind. 
★ You might be looking to play out scenarios between two new parents, or maybe you're looking for interactions between parent characters and the kiddos.
2. Get threading!

[More like the weird auncle with 30 cats who lets u crash on their couch when shit at home is getting a little too real or a cool mysterious mentor than an actual parent. Though there is a very real possibility he may have a litter of spawn out in the world.]

(( Who wants to adopt a cryptid-like child either on purpose or accidentally? Just getting back into RP from a break for a few years so I apologize if rusty! If you want a modern/no powers AU let me know, otherwise you get a canon, powered kiddo. ))
