Fans are still reeling after the six-part final season of Game of Thrones culminated in the death of their Queen, the exile of Westeros’s one true heir and the unexpected rise to power of one barely qualified, hardly present, say-no-more-than-five-words-every-season mysterious King.

The show has given us a few great lessons in parenting, and some glorious, totally relatable memes. So we thought, instead of being bitter, we’d be better, and reflect on the times that made us better parents, all the while putting a smile on our faces.
I mean, if the season didn’t come through, the internet certainly did.
