A New Teen Speak Dictionary for Parents – Will it Work?

shutterstock_25504387I just read this article from BBC News in the UK about a new online dictionary for parents of teenagers. It’s defines some “typical” teen words for parents so they can understand what they’re teenagers are saying. It’s a good idea in theory, but I wonder if teens change up their slang too quickly for a “dictionary” (what they call the “jargon buster”) like this…all the teens I know move so fast when it comes to what’s cool and what’s not. I wonder if the dictionary will be able to keep up.

    Excellent site you have here. I run a site similar to yours, and was wondering if you would like to trade links with me?
    You can see my site at http://Jijol.Com . I would give your site a prominent listing on my page, if you would be willing to do the same.
