Other Parents vs My Mother

Other Parents: when kids say they are depressed My Mother:

A man first acts like a typical parent reacting to a child saying they are depressed, then reappears as an exaggerated mother wrapped in a patterned headscarf and speaking dramatically. The joke contrasts supposedly understanding parents with a mother who responds in an intense, over-the-top way. It is used as a reaction to show dramatic or stereotypically strict parental behavior.
