About this listen
Are you who you are because of your parents…but you’d never admit it?
If you’ve ever rolled your eyes at your parents’ quirks only to realize you’re exactly like them, this book is for you.
The Hilarious Truth about Parenting, Children and Relationships is a laugh-out-loud journey through the chaos, hilarity, and occasional wisdom of growing up in a family full of rules, traditions, and those all-too-familiar phrases we swore we’d never repeat (Spoiler alert: We repeat them).
From “Clean your plate or else” guilt trips to the infamous “We’ll see…”—which is just a parent’s way of saying no—these hysterical stories will leave you laughing, cringing, and maybe even tearing up. Each chapter is packed with real-life moments, exaggerated chaos, and a secret heartwarming truth about what it means to be raised by parents who cared a little too much.
Inside this book, you’ll discover:
- The power struggles over the TV remote and the art of tactical channel flipping.
- Why leaving the lights on is a crime punishable by endless dad lectures.
- A survival guide for awkward family dinners featuring tuna casseroles and guilt-trips about wasting food.
- How yelling at your kid’s sports games is an Olympic sport (and your parents are gold medalists).
- And the hidden truths behind all those phrases that drove you crazy but shaped who you are today.
Why you’ll love this book: It’s funny. Like, “I-can’t-breathe” funny. Every story will remind you of your own family, whether you’re the one raising kids now or still recovering from your own parents’ creative parenting tactics. It’s the perfect mix of humor, heart, and those moments that make you think, Maybe my parents weren’t so crazy after all.
Perfect for parents, adult children, or anyone who’s ever survived a family gathering with a little laughter and a lot of eye-rolling.
Download now to laugh, reminisce, and maybe even admit (in secret, of course) that your parents were right all along.

Parenting Chaos Made Fun
I picked up Avery Finch’s book on a whim, and I’m so glad I did. It felt like sitting down with a friend who gets the madness of parenting—kids, relationships, and all. The stories are hilarious and painfully relatable (seriously, I’ve lived some of these moments). It’s refreshing to laugh at the chaos instead of stressing over it. If you’re a parent or enjoy funny family tales, this is worth the read.

Laugh, Relate, and Reflect
This audiobook is a delightful trip down memory lane, offering hilarious insights into family life and parenting. What really stood out to me were the relatable moments—like those rules we swore we’d never repeat, only to find ourselves saying them years later. The stories are not just funny; they also hold a truth about how parents shape us, even when we didn’t realize it. It made me laugh out loud, but also reflect on the things that make us who we are. A great listen for anyone who’s been part of a family.

Humorous and honest insights
This audiobook delivers a delightful mix of humor and nostalgia, drawing listeners into its engaging narrative about family dynamics. The writing is sharp, with a comedic edge that keeps the pace lively and entertaining. The narration is spot on, matching the content perfectly, capturing the tone with perfect timing and warmth, making each story resonate. At times, though, the humor is laid on a bit thick at the expense of deeper exploration, but that is expected based on the structure and content. Overall, it’s an excellent pick for anyone looking for a lighthearted yet meaningful take on the quirks of family life, perfect for an enjoyable, feel-good listen.

Laugh-Out-Loud Parenting Truths
This book had me cracking up while nodding in agreement the whole time. As a parent, I saw myself in so many of these stories—it’s like the author peeked into my life! The humor is spot-on, but it also has those little moments that make you stop and think about how we pass on traditions (and catchphrases) without realizing it. It’s a perfect mix of funny and heartfelt, and I couldn’t put it down. Highly recommend!

If you need a good laugh and some perspective on parenting, this is a great pick!
