Do you think the #measparent tweets are relatable? (Source: Hassan Mahmood/YouTube)
There is no denying the fact that most parents bring up their children with love and affection, however Indian parents tend to go a little ahead of others. The parent-child relationship that they share with their children and the sense of logic they add to the lives of their children sometimes tends to take a humorous turn. If you are an adult and are still living with your parents, then you sure can relate with the latest hashtag ‘me as parents’, which is trending on social media.
Interestingly, Twitterati are sharing this hashtag to express their perspective and how they would treat their children. It sure is an amusing take on Indian parenting and how different the present generation wants the parenting to be. While some users are sure to do exactly opposite of what their parents have done, others claim to be stricter. Can you relate with these tweets too?

It is obvious in most of the tweets that the users would allow, or claim to allow, their children to do all the things they themselves were stopped from doing by their parents. The humorous take on Indian parents is spot on and relatable. Moreover, it clearly shows how unique parenting in India is.
