Growing Up Arab

Comparison to Cousins

When your mom compares you to that one cousin and says things like, "SHE CLEANS, COOKS, TAKES CARE OF HER YOUNG SISTERS AND BROTHERS, AND STILL GETS GOOD GRADES IN SCHOOL. AND WHAT DO YOU DO?! SIT ALL DAY AND JUST STARE AT YOUR PHONE SCREEN AND FAIL SCHOOL."

And then she takes it a step further by saying, "Just watch, your future husband is going to divorce you from the second day."

Or is it just me?

Shout out to those good cousins--no, I'm kidding. I freaking hate you. Punk.
