Re: stuff we do for our precious ‘izat’

At lots of desi dinner parties I hear parents bragging about their own 18-30 year old kids about how good they are in uni, how religious they are, how smart they, that they have good jobs, etc. But I see them all at uni and stuff screwing around, dropping out of programs, not working where their parents say they work, drinking, staying out until late night and even ones wearing hijab are worse but their parents seem to think they are angels. I know some hijab girls in my city who are desperate about boys and go to ISNA and stuff only to meet guys. I mean do the parents really think their kids are that innocent? Like even my mom saw this auntie’s son at blockbuster with his hand on his girlfriend’s butt, and still like a year later she is always like “oh so and so’s son is so laike” and “kitna laike khandan”. Like whatever!

Oh boy, I can fill a complete book about this topic! Yes, we’ve heard that million times too from the elderly in our family. Us ka bacha unchi school mai dakhal huwa hai, tum na laiq hu. Us ki beti 10 saal ki thi, to haandi banana sikh liya thaa. bla bla bla. If only they knew how those kids act when they are among their friends.
