The older my kids get, the more dorky, uncool and older I feel. It seems like I’m always asking them, “What are you saying? What does that word even mean?” Today’s slang is so weird and ever changing; I’m constantly trying to keep up! With that said, I’ve compiled a list of some slang words that I’ve recently learned from my kiddos.
PS Don’t ever make the mistake and use these words in front of a real teen, they’ll Hundo P be V embarrassed by you!
