How Do You Do, Fellow Kids? (The Slang Term Quiz)

This week we are discussing the secret language of slang. So let’s take this 10 word quiz together on how well you understand modern slang terms. See if you score better than Sara D and Mike Levine! We also discuss when and where slang is appropriate and when and where it’s not. Of course we talk about what it was like when we were younger, now with our own kids and what the supposed experts say. Raising kids truly is a four way game of tug of war, because it’s the three of us and all of you!
