Professor John Sutherland from University College London has found the top ten words which parents do not understand.

His list included the following expressions:

TBT – Throwback Thursday
LMK – Let me know
RN – Right now
Fleek – Looking good
FOMO – Fear of missing out
Bae – Before Anyone Else (a term of affection)
ICYMI – In case you missed it
Deadout – Rubbish or tired
Thirsty – Looking for attention
NSFW – Not safe for work

I'm not a parent and I didn't understand all of them. Did you?
 
Only the last one. But, that's only because I, personally, get labeled it.

A lot.

:blush:
 
I knew most of them, seen them posted on Facebook posts.
 
My adult sons don't use slang like that.
