What Does Owp Stand for in Text

Every year we update our teen slang and this year we've added a handful of terms that may make your jaw drop.

Slang is an integral part of growing up. A word or abbreviation can add significant meaning or emotion to a message or text. Slang helps kids define their connections, feel accepted, and gain independence. And of course, there's the bonus of slang which is keeping parents in the dark. Every piece of that logic is reasonable for the most part, so we should be hands-off but aware in allowing this rite of passage.

The variable that's different between kids today kids of the past is technology. If the meaning of a veiled word or phrase is funny or harmless, then no problem. But when a term is loaded with offensive, abusive, illegal or harmful meaning, then it's time to take that slang seriously.

As always, we've unofficially canvassed a handful of teens, paid attention to the digital chatter, and curated a few impressive lists and here's the slang we found that kids are using.
