Newsday
If you’re the parent of a teenager, you need to know the definition of this word: hornswoggle. It means to bamboozle. To deceive by underhanded methods. To dupe.
According to Ellen Pober Rittberg, an author and mom from Roslyn, your teenagers will hornswoggle you. They will lie. They will try to throw at least one party involving "Fermented Grain Products" at a time when you aren't home. They will lead a secret life that it's your job to infiltrate.
