Police have revealed the secret code your child might be using online.

List is divided into three categories - warning flags, terms to keep an eye on, and fun.

Several 'warning flags' are related to drugs and alcohol, including 420 ( marijuana ), crow (cannabis), Molly (ecstasy/MDMA), wavey (drunk or high), and wired (drug induced paranoia) Acronyms to be aware of include CU46 (see you for sex), FWB (friends with benefits), FYEO (for your eyes only), GNOC (get naked on camera) and IWSN (I want sex now).

For under-11s, the NSPCC recommends making sure you're using language they can understand.

For older children and teenagers, the charity says that regularly checking in with them is key.

'Their needs and behaviour will be changing and they may find talking to you embarrassing,' it said.
