9 Common Threats Desi Kids Get From Their Parents

We cannot deny having had countless fights with our dear parents. Whether it is ‘kyun nahin par rahay ho’ or the classic ‘har waqt phone par hyn lagay rahtay ho’, we cannot help but admit that no matter how much our parents can irritate and infuriate us, there is no denying they are only acting for our benefit. Desi parents can be cool in the way they won’t budge from their upright morals and values no matter what! Here are a few hilariously classic instances of the threats of Desi parents.

1. Look What you did! “Kahin muh dikhane ke layak nahi rakha”

4. You’ll end up doing ‘jhaaroo poncha’ if you don’t study.

Yes, even if we fail a mere quiz, no doubt the parents will be waiting in the hallway as we come home from school, holding toilet bleach and brooms we’ll so desperately need for our bleak, desolate future!
