[quote=Anonymous]If you have a teen and reading didn't do it, it's not going to do it now. My son is interested in sports and music. I listen to his music and find words I think he doesn't understand and explain it to him. I also take lyrics I don't understand and he explains them to me... which usually requires a lot of background information since I don't know pop culture stuff. We read sports articles on line or in the paper (i know we still get a paper) and there is good vocabulary there. It eventually turned into ... yes mom I know what XXX means... I'm not an idiot, I know who the speaker of the house is... etc. (unfortunately there is a lot of politics in sports)[/quote]
