Our parents love us. They do everything in their power to protect us from the big bad world. We know they mean good but there are times when they put some weird restrictions on us that are backed by no logic whatsoever. These could be things they don’t want us to do just because they feel those things are wrong. Read on to know some of the crazy restrictions all our desi parents have put on us and we bet you’ll relate to hard.
1. An Unrealistic Curfew
I am no Cinderella, mom!
2. No Sleepovers Allowed
Because my friends can get me kidnapped at night?
3. Don’t Stand In The Balcony
‘Coz awaara log do that!
4. Don’t Talk On The Phone At Night
Good kids don’t talk on the phone at night.
5. Don’t Walk Barefoot
