12 Things That Are No Match For Your Lebanese Mom

Lebanese moms are not to be underestimated. They’re like superheroes, and we love them for it. Here are 12 things we’re sure are no match for your Lebanese mom.

1. A sore throat

Often cured with shawrabet 3adas or crazy home remedies because she refuses to buy you Strepsils.

2. Fake news

Fear not! No propaganda will ever set foot in this household because she knows everything from those not sketchy at all WhatsApp groups!

3. Delivered food

“Men shu byeshke akel l bet?”

4. Your plans

You have plans? Think again.

“Mama layko l shete, l taree2 metel l saboon!!! Ajlo hal dahra la sayfiyet l jey”

9. KFC

She is convinced she can put KFC out of business with her superior fried chicken recipe.

10. Other moms

Because her kids are much better than everyone else’s kid, even though she compares you to them all the time. It’s her tactic to motivate you to be your very best of course.
