What Parents Google Search For
Google Autocomplete Hilariously Reveals What Parents Really Search For Most
We've all been there – stumped for an answer but perhaps too exhausted (or, let's be honest, embarrassed) to ask a trusted friend, we turn to the one place we know will give us exactly what we need without judgment: Google.
Thanks to Google's "autocomplete" functionality — in which the search engine guesses what you're searching for as you're typing, based on what the rest of the world searches most frequently — we can get those answers in near-lightning speed . . . but not without a few head-scratching, stomach-turning, LOL-inducing looks at what the rest of the parents out there are really wondering.
We took the liberty of plugging in a few oft-used phrases to see what moms, dads, and their internet-savvy kids are googling. We're not entirely sure you want to know what happens when you type "where does my kid . . . ," but we're going to show you anyway.
