The popularity of instant messaging and texting is spreading like wildflower. So how do you protect your kids from the new dangers of this ever-growing communication and lingo? Well, you’re half way there – KidZui protects your computer and kids with no instant messaging, but what about texting on cell phones?

Kids today are using abbreviated language to text because mom and dad are “DAR” (dumb as rocks) who make-up “TSR” (totally stupid rules). “Texting is the #2 use of cell-phones after checking the time,” according to Common Sense Media. Here at KidZui we don’t have a solution (not yet anyway) for kids’ texting inappropriate messages or adults sending them to kids, however we’ve compiled a list of abbreviated lingo and definitions to keep you informed.
