Parenting is no easy feat. The sleepless nights. The early morning school drop-offs. The time-honored tradition of parent-child screaming matches over math homework at the kitchen table. But while these tough moments are often so rewarding, sometimes kids decide to throw all their manners to the wind and heed the tiny devil sitting on their shoulders. Just ask the exhausted parents navigating broken glasses, empty gas tanks, and a bitten, leaky washing machine.
From a bastardized pizza to a microwaved Nintendo 3DS, here are 21 times kids got on their parents' last nerves.
