Have no idea what your kids are saying when they type TTYL, BBFN, LMK, or TMSIDK?
Don?t worry, you?re not alone. Many of us parents feel the same way. It?s like your kids are texting or writing in a foreign language, one designed specifically to keep you out of the loop.
Of course, this isn?t really the case. Lots of adults know the terms, too. But if you?re not someone who has stayed in the know it can seem a little daunting and make you feel like your kids may be saying things that are worrying, or unacceptable. And perhaps they are.
