Some people who sincerely want social workers to understand today’s teens have compiled a somewhat ridiculous glossary of supposed youth buzzwords. Some of the terms on the list are at least a decade out of date (“baby daddy,” “mack”). Most are demeaning, particularly when stuffed and mounted in this particular context (“skeeza,” “thugged,” “pigeon”). If anyone, besides clueless white mall rats, actually uses more than a few of the phrases in everyday conversation, I’d be truly surprised.
