Parents urged to tighten Facebook privacy settings for kids as slang quiz underscores generational language gap

Experts recommend that parents regularly review and adjust their children's Facebook settings to reduce risks such as online harassment, scams, and unwanted contact. Key steps include setting profiles to private, restricting who can send messages, disabling location sharing, and enabling two‑factor authentication. Regular conversations about safe social‑media use are also stressed as essential for protecting minors.

A separate trend shows many parents and grandparents struggling to keep up with contemporary youth slang. A new online quiz tests knowledge of popular Hungarian teen expressions, highlighting a growing communication gap between generations and encouraging older families to learn current language to better relate to their children and grandchildren.
