Honestly. It's just weird.

When a good twitter trend gets going, it really gets going. Most of the time, these long and specific trends get started with relateable experiences in mind, but Twitter's newest relateable trend has some people hilariously disputing this particular life experience.

When it comes to growing up, we're all split into two camps: those with lenient parents and those with strict parents. There is no in between.

And that's, like, cool and all. But the real stars of the show are the kids who just.can't.relate. to. that.
