After 12 Things All Lebanese Mothers Do on Whatsapp, we bring you the Dad version!

1. Replying “ok” when you tell them you miss them

Or sends some weird ass sticker.

2. Raising the volume up to 100 when they’re listening to a voice note

W kel el beit bi sir yaaref oasis rfi2o Joseph.

“Ntebeho ya welde aam bi oulo fi ser2at ktir”

4. Forgetting to check WhatsApp for 12 days, then responding to old messages.
