Ahhh desi parents. Becharay are so cute yet so controlling. They can’t ever let go of their instinct to judge you and monitor each and everything you’re doing but they love you uncontrollably, all at the same time.
Growing up with desi parents is fun and here are just some of the moments that anyone who’s grown up with desi parents will definitely relate to:
1. They make their own rules and don’t care what anyone thinks of them

2. They have some of the most savage insults for their kids
parents: why don't you come socialize with the family?
me: sits with family
me: gets insulted by entire family
me: goes back to room— Monkey D. Luffy (@Luffy_D_King) September 7, 2017
3. Their sarcasm is ON POINT
*breaks a glass accidentally when my mom walks in*
Mom: "why don't you break more glasses?"
