The Indian mom of Fearosa Tigrosa most commonly found in India is a creature that undergoes metamorphosis like a butterfly - a very scary butterfly - think if Frankenstein decided the body of an Asian (Pretty) middle-aged lady is more scary.
She begins life as a carefree creature not knowing that she is subconsciously picking up the unique traits of her mother (Wait did I also? ah damn, gotta go buy some tupperware)
She meets the male of her species, gets trapped in the socio-economic circle of marriage. They do a lot of taxes and night and that leads to the biggest tax of them all - a child (I meant buying for a human not buying a human).
To better camouflage herself in the social milieu, the indian mom slowly transfers her dreams (and nightmares) to her unsuspecting child who at this stage thinks it is socially acceptable to pound on their mother's breasts and demand milk.
The child grows up hearing tales of their mother topping every examination possible but somehow missing the mention in the Guiness Book of world records. The Indian child wrestles against Math in a deathfight till one of them gives up. Statistically speaking Math gives up as the tenavious little child grows into a mini version of their mom.
They get into the college of their mom's dreams and think I've done my bit. But the Indian mother is now entering the *pupal *stage - she will metamorphize from a mom who throws her shoe at you if you talk to guys to mom who will throw insults if you don't.
Marriage is on her mind. She is now on the hunt for a son-in-law. She flies in packs to find her prey wherein with the beautiful synergy between two indian mothers, both preys are hunted and settle down to dubious marital bliss.
One would think that now the indian mom will put up her feet and rest. You would be wrong, because her cycle is not complete until she makes her child a mom. Her child who used to sleep at night, her child who never wanted to be like her. Her child who apprciates her more and loves her after understanding what she went through. Her child, who desperately wishes she doesn't come across this post.
