Acronyms are widely popular across the Internet, especially on social media and texting apps, because, in some cases, they offer a shorthand for communication that is meant to be instant but at the same time, young teens create internet acronyms to chat with peers and their parents wont blink an eye cos they obvious;y don't understand what the kids are saying.

You know what “LOL” means and you also obviously know what “BRB” means, but let me test your coolness!

Any idea what “IWSN” and “NIFOC” stands for in Internet slangs?
“IWSN” is a declarative statement: I want sex now while “NIFOC” means naked in front of computer.

If it makes you feel any better, I had no clue, and neither did a number of women I asked about it.

So “LMK” — let me know — and “WYCM” — will you call me? — are innocent enough.

But the issue, especially for parents, is understanding the slang that could signal some dangerous teen behavior, such as “GNOC,'” which means “get naked on camera.”

And it certainly helps for a parent to know that “PIR” means parent in room, which could mean the teen wants to have a conversation about things that his or her mom and dad might not approve of.
NN’s digital correspondent, Kelly Wallace, compiled a list of some internet acronyms widely used by savvy teens on social media and texting apps that he thinks all parents should know...lol for CNN.

Read the list, he says it will redefine how you monitor your teen’s conversations with his/her peers when you continue.....

These are codes used by teens in the US and UK. They mostly code virtually everything to beat suspecting parents. The reality is that coding has caused a lot of academic set-back for these children, especially in the UK. Teachers complain of children not concentrating and regularly texting while in school. No wonder a lot of these teens failed in their GCSC (WEAC, GCE  equivalent). I urge people not to be distracted by these so-called abbreviation and maintain our normal way of proper typing and writing. However, parents should watch out for suspicious children and wards in regular use of phones and laptops and the likes.
