Like every coin has two sides, similarly having parents on Facebook have two sides. Sometimes it gets annoying and sometimes you feel good that they are moving ahead with the world.
Here are the things you experience when your parents are on Facebook
1. The day you get your parent’s friend request
You’re in a dilemma whether to accept or not.
2. You realize your parents are stalking your profile
And you go like whatttttttt?
3. Can’t upload photos with the person you’re dating
Sorry babe, parents are here too. Can’t upload these pictures here.
4. You dread the idea of your friends uploading your random photos
Hey please, don’t tag me in them. My folks are on Facebook.
5. They ask you to change your profile picture
Great. So, I don’t have the freedom to put up a display picture of my choice.
6. Parents add your friends in their list
What? Why would you do that? No…
7. You can’t update your relationship status
They shouldn’t have the slightest idea that I am dating someone.
8. Check-ins are scary too
I want to check in and make my friends jealous, but I can’t cuz my parents will know where I go.
9. Put up a status during your college hours
Immediately see a comment from your mom/dad to pay attention in the class.
10. Put up a love quote simply cuz you liked it
Get ready to answer a bunch of questions at home. Are you in love? who is he/she? Same cast? Give me a break!
11. Put up a sad status or like a sad post
Are you going through a breakup? What happened? Are you okay?
12. See yourself tagged in some embarrassing photos
But you look so cute, even Sharma aunty commented that you look good. see.
13. If by chance your phone’s network isn’t working well, expect some message on your facebook wall
You know you could just message me on facebook instead of putting it on my wall. The entire world read that message which was meant for me.
14. They make some silly mistake with their facebook account and ask you to fix it
You just smile at how innocent your parents are when it comes to technology.
15. Receiving threats from them, if something is not done on time, then our facebook wall will get screwed
Okay, okay cool. I will do your work. Relax!
16. Randomly you see a post shared by them on their wall that says share if you have the best son/daughter ever
You really have no words to express your happiness.
17. Then comes a beautiful post on your wall wishing you happy birthday in the most sweetest way ever
Like I said there are two sides to every thing, and we must appreciate the fact that our parents are trying hard enough to change positively with time.
Kudos to all the parents on Facebook 🙂
