Oomf

Teen slang, explained for parents.

What it means

"One of my followers." Used to vaguely reference someone without naming them. "Oomf really just said that." A way to subtweet or subtly call someone out without direct confrontation.

How to bring it up with your kid

No concern. Just internet shorthand. Useful to know if you see it in their posts, it means they're talking about someone specific without naming them.

Calm guidance for raising kids in a digital world.
