Teenage Sexting: An R-Rated Language All Its Own

By Dr. Vicki PanaccioneJune 27, 2012

Following my article on Teenage Sexting, I have had numerous requests from parents for acronyms to BOLO — Be On the Lookout.  Your teens and tweens have a new language all their own, in the form of symbols and abbreviations that they are constantly texting to one another.  As a parent, it’s important for you to become savvy to the kinds of messages that may be a cause for alarm.

After searching the Internet, I have come up with the lists below.  The first (and much tamer list, I might add) is from Mary Jo Rapini, author of “Start Talking: A Girl’s Guide for You and Your Mom About Health, Sex or Whatever.”  In an interview on Examiner.com, Ms. Rapini offered up this primer on teenage sexting codes:

121: One to one
143: I love you
182: I hate you
2c4u: Too cool for you
2H2H: Too hot to handle
2M2H: Too much to handle
303: Mom
420: Marijuana
4GM: Forgive me
CD9: Parent in room
99: Parent has left
A3: Anyplace, anywhere, anytime
Addy: Address
AH: At home
AOC: Available on cell
ASL: Age, sex, location
ASLP: Age, Sex, Location, Picture
AWT: At what time
AYSOS: Are you stupid or something
DOC: Drug of choice

In addition, there are numerous lists circulating on line about teenage sexting, including this one — with a warning for some R-rated language.
