Listen "Talkin' Teen (Slang terms you should know)"
Episode Synopsis
Language shapes worldview, and teen slang provides insights into what's influencing our children's hearts and how they interact with the world around them.• Teen slang functions as a different language, sometimes hiding deeper meanings parents need to understand• Summer increases screen time, exposing teens to more slang through TikTok, Snapchat, and Instagram • Fun slang includes terms like "bet" (agreement), "slaps" (good music), and "drip" (stylish outfit)• Some slang raises concerns: "thirst trap" (provocative selfie), "Finsta" (fake Instagram), and "sus" (suspicious)• Red flag terms include "unalive" (suicide), "plug" (drug dealer), and "body count" (sexual partners)• Parents should check devices regularly, ask questions without lecturing, and remain calm when confronting issues• Praying over your child's heart daily helps them grow in holiness rather than conforming to worldly influencesIf you enjoyed this episode or know parents who would benefit from this information, please share it with them and subscribe so you don't miss our next episode.Send any questions you want answered to [email protected] This podcast is presented by Wayne Christian School- A Christ-centered community school whose mission is to assist parents and churches in the education of their children from a biblical worldview to impact their world for Christ.
