If you are a Baby Boomer or older, chances are that you don’t have a clue what your grandchildren are texting back and forth. It could be state secrets or a recipe for brownies. But there’s good news because a new STC (Senior Texting Code) has been invented so now all of us technically-challenged geezers have our own sneaky way to communicate that not even the smartest fifth-grader could crack; well, maybe.
Below you’ll find the new basic text codes just for seniors; enjoy.
