My story about: Decoding Teen Lingo
Princess_Peg's story
September 12, 2007
Recently, a friend of mine took away her daughter's cell phone privilege. Never mind the infraction that lost her the phone. What happened afterward was nothing short of comical.
My friend was inspecting all of the recent texts on the phone to see just what her errant daughter had really been up to lately when a text from an apparent (and unknown to Mom) boyfriend came up.
I'll protect the guilty here by not revisiting the story, but suffice it to say that as soon as the daughter's friends figured out that "Mom" had the phone, all phone calls and texts (of which there had previously been MANY...) suddenly mysteriously dried up. The PHP (parent has phone) alert had evidently been sufficiently spread!
