Reasons kids cry

Although it might seem that someone is about to die, the kid just isn't allowed to eat the cat food. Or throw books at her parent's faces. Or any of the other absurd reasons why kids decide to show their skills on how to cry. Isn't it awesome to be a parent? It is. It really is.

Children cry for many different reasons... Not having their mommy by their side, not wanting to eat their veggies, not having who to play with - you name it. But did you know that a child could also cry because of not being able to eat the rest of a football? Well now you do, thanks to 'Reasons My Son Is Crying' - a website created by father Greg Pembroke. He collects photos sent from parents around the world, and posts them to his website.

Women and little kids have one thing in common - crying spontaneously for the weirdest reasons ever (no offense, ladies). Remember the time you first saw Barrack Obama? Crying.

He collects photos of funny babies…

Parents do everything for their children. Even if it means listening to a loud sob session over a completely ridiculous thing. You see, according to one universal truth, sometimes kids get completely crushed for the most unexpected reasons, and they will go into a tantrum to let everyone know about it.

People cry for a variety of reasons, but it's usually the kinds of extreme feelings of happiness or sadness that get the waterworks flowing. Not for kids though. Kids quickly learn that crying gets a reaction from their parents, and can begin bawling in dramatic fashion at the drop of a hat.

Ahh, the joys of parenting.
