Texts That Make You Go ‘Huh?’ The Most Peculiar Messages from Parents!
Parental Mix of Caution with Slang
A mother’s concern about icy roads led her to text her child a stern warning to drive safely. After receiving an acknowledging reply from her child, she unpredictably followed up with a “YOLO” (You Only Live Once).
