Now Ain't That Relatable

Relatable moments with parents.

They birthed you.

- When you realize your parents had to live through school without Google, and then seeing them in a whole new light.

- Having to keep switching tabs when your parents check on you every 5 minutes while you're on your laptop.

- When your parents are mad at your sibling and so they decide to get mad at you too.

- Me: *breathes*
Mom: I am SICK AND TIRED of your attitude!

- When your parents decide to try impressing your friends by making fun of you and telling them about the time you peed your pants trying to jump off the monkey bars at school. Again.

- When your parents forget your name.

- Pure happiness is when you tell a gigantic and totally unbelievable lie. And your parents buy it.

- When your parents compare you with your friends and you just stand there, fantasizing about the day they'll find out Melanie's gotten arrested 4 times.

- When your parents are yelling at you and they mess up.

- Makin weird faces at a stranger's baby when their parents aren't looking.

- When your friends think your parents are nice.

- The "when I was your age" lecture.

- When your parents have guests over and you have to greet them. And then you stay in your room until they're gone.

- When your parents leave you home alone. *Joy tears*

- When your mom asks you where the spacebar is.

- When your parents rush you to get ready, and when you're done, they're not.

- I eat too much, my parents get mad. I eat too less, my parents get mad. I stay in my room, my parents get mad. I go out too much, my parents get mad. And the list never ends.

- The "10 hours of labor" lecture.
