Yes "Netflix and chill" is a term specifically used by millenials that means come over and we'll hook up. Look up all the memes

Honestly, the comments were so funny! I just sat back and watched. But I was mortified! One of my other kids sent me a link to the meaning of "Netflix and chill" after they say the post. I about died!

I would be mortified if my mom wrote something like this on my Facebook wall. And not just the Netflix and chill part. Is this common for parents to do now?
