                         Indian children have become more acustomed towards more  modern western cloth's. With the great diversity youths  

                         are wearing things such as hoodies , low sagging jeans, t-shirts, tee's, and short shorts. While these trends are rushing in

Daughter: What do you mean? What's wrong with this?

Mom: I don't like it, go put on that Sari I just bought for you last week.

Daughter: What?! Why? I don't like wearing that stuff mom, it's so out, old.

Mom: How could you say that? Next your going to tell me that your not coming to Diwali next week!

Daughter: Actually mom... I kinda just made plans to go to the movies that day...

Mom: Young lady, you can't just skip out on your religion like that, we need to have a serious talk beta.

Daughter: Wait, mom,

Mom: I am telling your father, we'll see what he has to say about this!

Daughter: Uh-oh. *sigh*
