What does SOS mean?

SOS means “save our ship.” But kids use it to express distress (often jokingly). 

For example, if one child says “Harry Styles just got a new girlfriend,” their friend might respond with “Sos noooooo!”

• “What’s a new word you and your friends are into right now?”
• “When I was your age, people would say something was ‘all that and a bag of chips’ if it was awesome. What’s your favorite word to describe something as cool?”
• “I know emojis can mean something different to kids than they do to parents. Are there any emojis I use that you think I should stop using?”
• “If you could describe yourself using just one emoji, which one would you pick?”
