Secret Hashtags
Posted on February 28, 2017 in Parenting
Here are a few new #hashtags kids are using listed below. Remember many of us are working hard to keep parents informed. Again, I beg you…no smart phones until late high school. No social media for any teenagers. But for those of you who disagree, please be diligent. Check your kids devices. Be informed. You have your work cut out for you.
Blessings,
1. #deb for “depression”
2. #sue for “suicide”
3. #ana for “anorexic”

5. #ednos for “eating disorder not otherwise specified”
