A GIF Story: Life Lessons From Modern Family

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Mass Amherst chapter.

In my not-so-humble-opinion, Modern Family is one of the funniest and most relatable shows on TV right now. If you don’t watch it, you’re missing out. All of the characters are perfect in their own way, and the show is laugh-out-loud hilarious. Best of all, there are real life lessons and solid advice we can learn from watching it.

Life can be frustrating, and sometimes you’ve just got to take a break and get away from it all.


Food is a great companion.


Parents can be totally embarrassing.


Sometimes it’s really hard to care.


As annoying as it is, people will not always like your ideas.


Proving someone wrong is one of the most satisfying feelings in the world.


Diets are incredibly frustrating.


Our gals are always there for us, and it’s important to return the favor in their times of need.


If you don’t already watch, hopefully this has helped convince you to start! Modern Family airs Wednesdays on ABC at 9pm.
