Tip:
Trying to keep up with new technology and what our kids know is tough. Have you ever watched a thirteen-year-old do her/his homework? Multi-tasking is an ability built in to every teenager. They can listen to music, maybe download it, watch television, Email, and text message while doing their homework. I thought you might like to know some of the most common abbreviations used in text messaging.
- 404 – I don’t know
- A3 – Anytime, anywhere, anyplace
- ADD – address
- AFK – away from keyboard
- BRB – Be right back
- DIR – Dad in room
- FYEO – For your eyes only
- LOL – Laughing out loud
- MoS – Mother over shoulder
- nOOb – Newbie
- PM – Private message
- SLAP – Sounds like a plan
- LTNT – Long time no type
