Explaining chinese memes to help me learn chinese:

我的父母

Wŏ de fùmŭ

My parents

你以后不生孩子,

Nî yîhòu bù shēng háizi

(You later not birth kids) - the characters in yîhòu literally mean "at [later time/future/after]"

等你老了

Děng nî lăo le

(When you old) - le indicates that an action has completed, so this means "when you get/are/have become old"

谁照顾你?

shéi zhàogu nî?

(Who [take care/attend to/look after] you?) - zhàogu has several meanings including to "take into consideration" and also to take care of.
