If you’re ever confused by the words that make their way into your kid’s vocabulary, trust me, you are not alone. As trends evolve, things fall in and out of favor. The words kids pick up from pop culture are constantly changing.
Life360, creators of a location-sharing family safety app, have come up with a solution. They’re providing help to parents looking to stay in the loop. After all, not every kid is generous enough to make their parents a personalized guide.
Thus, the parent glossary was born. They sourced definitions for today’s most commonly used slang terms from members of Gen Z. Learn what it means to be “salty,” to “get the tea,” and more. Since slang is constantly evolving, Life360 has decided to update the parent glossary every quarter, so parents never have to fall too far out of touch.
Are you one of those parents who would rather not know? Reconsider, seeing it as an additional communication tool, rather than something you need to incorporate into your own everyday life.
“Kid and teen slang is constantly changing, making it difficult for parents to stay in the loop,” notes the Life360 team. “The Glossary will allow parents to keep up with the latest lingo, helping them communicate more efficiently and effectively, and feel closer to their kids.”
