Not everyone can quarantine with their parents right now. It isn’t safe to travel in a lot of areas, and there are a lot of concerns about bringing the virus back to people who are elderly or immunocompromised, though young people can be struck by COVID-19 as well. It’s a scary time and it’s hard to be separated from family.
Luckily, we still have technology that allows our parents to send absolutely deranged messages directly to us pretty much any time, day or night.
moms text like they’re on cocaine and dads text like they haven’t figured out a phone yet

Younger people have started sharing the wildest texts they’ve gotten from their moms and dads on Twitter for our amusement. Or maybe they just need to share them somewhere to release the second-hand anxiety. Parents are going as crazy as their kids, but they’re still acting like parents, bad puns and cleaning recommendations and all. It’s both terrifying and reassuring and very, very funny.
