How Lebanese Parents Raise Their Kids! 

I just sent this to my Lebanese mom and her slipper came thru the window! She lives 15 miles away.

When your lebanese parents call you "mama" or "baba", even tho THEY are the parents..... i actually do this with my son 🙈"mama ta3al la hon"

I’m so glad I love looking at different cultures. They make the world so beautiful when you realize that flip flops are a universal tool of child traumatizing 😂😂😂😂😂😂

You forgot the part when you do something wrong and your dad goes "yl3an abouk" and you mom tells you "yl3an hal marba" 😂

I guess lebanese parents and latin parents have a lot in common hahaha

My lebanese girlfriend is your biggest fan.. it has me worried :)

😂😂 I love the part where 3 "beat your ass" choices are given, with "choose" as a statement.

Don't forget the cruel nicknames: wli, habla, ja7shi 😭

Lmao I'm from Puerto Rico and i was raised exactly like this but I would never tell them to "eat shit" I would've been fed my own teeth😂😂😂 tomorrow is my birthday and the first one without my father who passed away on June. I'm grateful for having him as my father, I miss him every day.

You forgot about that part when, returning late and your father waiting for you while you sneaking out 😂😂

From 0:30 to 0:40 that’s Russian mothers right there. When I’m done eating and she asks do you want more and I say no. Then she’s like “ whaaaat you didn’t like it?!” After that, you can choose your own path. 1: to say no and then get slapped or 2: say yes but I’m full and still get more food put on your plate. #GrowingupRussian. All jokes aside, keep up the good work Mark!

This was literally a flashback of my entire life!! I love your Leb videos, Mark. I share them with all of my brothers and cousins. Keep on making these!

I can't stop laughing 😂 this is so true

I am jordanian but this is still the exact same thing for me😂😂😂

My dad was talking until “kol khara” appeared 😂

Me and my family are Mexican, I feel like we share so many gestures and traditions with the Lebanese people. The "chancla" or "slipper" part was on point! Lol

Omg sooo relatable. I showed this too my dad and he started saying "eh shou he" when the kid said koll khara

all arab parents do this once my mom told me this "you know why i treat u this way BECAUSE WHEN U GROW UP YOU BE A STRONG LADY"

I was raised in a more African American up bringing and we to had multiple choice "weapons" for punishment. Lol

here's the thing the Lebanese parents are all of these at once

oh god, flashbacks to the belt

The ending tho😂😂

I remember back when I was in elementary school, kids would explain how their parents used to beat them up, some would show me their new scars while the talk about how the last beating went down. They all used to share their stories. They used to make fun of me because my parents never beat me up at all... I'm so glad my parents weren't that type to be honest 😅

When your dad says "Yenhal aboek" and you say but you're my dad ... dead 😭

My mom is the rainshower of affection

Hahaha I'm dead! I'm Somali n my parents its like dat Keep it up dg!#DG قصبا عنك بتاكل😋😋 From Australia

I lived in Greece when I was a teenager and this brings back so many memories of how people communicated versus my protected sheltered white Anglo-Saxon Protestant upbringing otherwise. Especially when Greeks would argue in English with a thick Greek accent almost indistinguishable from some of your videos. Also, the hand gestures and general attitude work very well when arguing or negotiating with Anglo ppl. Nothing throws them off-balance quicker than an unexpected flick of the wrist or "look".

So parenting is a universal way of doing it 😂😂😂

Wow the woman in the family never missed with the slippers when they aimed. Even when you are running away that shit would turn and still hit you. The where professional.

I love how our parents give us a choice, belt or shoe !

I am Lebanese and can relate very much lol 🤣🤣🤣 it's in our genes 🇱🇧 although I never continued my education in secondary school (boring, too complicated and stressful, etc.) I still like to study certain subjects while working in retail for the time being. Btw you forgot the empty ice tray that we leave in or out of the freezer and our Lebanese parents get very mad when we don't fill it up and put back in freezer. Also, when we leave the fridge open for too long our Lebanese parents get angry too.

HAHA when you pulled up those weapons: My childhood to a T. And I deserved every single swing. Chez les Francais, c'est la meme chose.

0:16 the biggest mistake of his life...

In turkey we also have the "slippers of doom". This tool, if propperly used, becomes a precise and deadly weapon, which hits it's targets even around the corner and never misses. Greetings from germany!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m enjoying your channel so much! I grew up in a small Southern town that, believe it or not, had a big Lebanese Christian community .....and the kids all spoke with very strong Southern drawls...i think you’d find it amusing. I learned to love Middle Eastern food when I was playing with them when we were little kids. We’d run in for a snack and when at their houses, my favorite was cold kibbeh from the fridge with mustard on it! LOL!! Their church would have a big fund raiser every year. They’d hire some great, well known band and sell tickets and food... we called it, “The Kibbeh Stomp” and people would come from miles around to attend because the bands were so good. They had to keep getting their bigger and bigger venues because the yearly “Stomp” would get more and more famous and popular. You were totally uncool and a total loser if you missed the kibbeh stomp! My playmates grandmothers spoke mostly Arabic and would force feed me that delicious food.....l loved it!

Hilariously familiar. I have heard all of this in my friends' houses, but mysteriously, my Syrian American mother did her best to keep us American, so I had to learn it in other people's homes, and I am thankful. It is part of our souls.

I'm syrian and I love the labanese accent and this vedio true 100%😂

the best part is when your parents regret ever having you when you make them mad. " Lek yel3an el se3a ille jebtik fiya 3a hal dinye" . top notch insult.

I have been living in the Arab World for the past 34 years and although I don’t live in Lebanon, the Lebanese are part of the landscape in the country I live. Your videos are great and are giving me some insight into the world of the mysterious (to me) Lebanese. So entertaining!

Latino households are exactly the same. It's uncanny, really.

Love all your videos!

Emta hat7l 3ani - naki 😂😂 that’s gold

Number 1,2,3 and 4 👌 especially number 4, you sound exactly like my mum, Aunty, uncles...whole of my family 😂

I am half-lebanese and I am proud to say that this is an accurate representation of the lebanese part of my fam.

Hahahahahahahaha. So they are so passionate!

(eat shit) is the best part😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
