Are you ready to be a mother? Take these hilarious tests!

15 Jun, 2016

A humourous are-you-ready-for-parenthood tests have gone viral! Serious about being a mother? We dare you to take these 14 tests! Don't say we didn't warn you..

Are you ready to be a mother?

Are you ready to be a mother?

Positively sure you're ready for parenthood? Any parent would tell you it's hard to be a parent. But if you haven't been one, you can only imagine... Until now. A mummy blogger put pregnancy and motherhood into perspective using tongue-in-cheek tests.

Warning: You might be flooded with second thoughts about motherhood, after these tests are through with you! However, we don't want you to be discouraged. Any mother will assuredly tell you (as an aspiring mummy) that everything you're about to experience is worth it.


Test 1: Preparation

Test 1: Preparation

Women: To prepare for pregnancy

1. Put on a dressing gown and stick a beanbag down the front.

2. Leave it there.

3. After 9 months remove 5% of the beans.

Men: To prepare for children

1. Go to a local chemist, tip the contents of your wallet onto the counter and tell the pharmacist to help himself.

2. Go to the supermarket. Arrange to have your salary paid directly to their head office.

3. Go home. Pick up the newspaper and read it for the last time.

Test 2: Knowledge

Test 2: Knowledge

Find a couple who are already parents and berate them about their methods of discipline, lack of patience, appallingly low tolerance levels and how they have allowed their children to run wild.

Suggest ways in which they might improve their child's sleeping habits, toilet training, table manners and overall behaviour.

Enjoy it. It will be the last time in your life that you will have all the answers.

Test 3: Nights

Test 3: Nights

To discover how nights will feel from now on:

1. Walk around the living room from 5pm to 10pm carrying a wet bag weighing approximately 4 - 6kg, with a radio turned to static (or some other obnoxious sound) playing loudly.

2. At 10pm, put the bag down, set the alarm for midnight and go to sleep.

3. Get up at 11pm and walk the bag around the living room until 1am.

4. Set the alarm for 3am.

5. As you can't get back to sleep, get up at 2am and make a cup of tea.

6. Go to bed at 2.45am.

7. Get up again at 3am when the alarm goes off.

8. Sing songs in the dark until...

9. Put the alarm on for 5am. Get up when it goes off.

10. Make breakfast.

Keep this up for 5 years. LOOK CHEERFUL.

5. Continue until half the cornflakes are gone.

6. Tip the rest into your lap, making sure that a lot of it falls on the floor.

Test 10: TV

Test 10: TV

1. Learn the names of every character from the Wiggles, Barney, Teletubbies and Disney.

Test 11: Mess

Test 11: Mess

Can you stand the mess children make? To find out:

1. Smear peanut butter onto the sofa and jam onto the curtains

2. Hide a fish behind the stereo and leave it there all summer.

3. Stick your fingers in the flowerbeds and then rub them on clean walls. Cover the stains with crayon. How does that look?

4. Empty every drawer/cupboard/storage box in your house onto the floor and proceed with step 5.

5. Drag randomly items from one room to another room and leave them there.

Test 12: Long Trips with Toddlers

You are now ready to take a long trip with a toddler.
