Urge...do you find that your kids pick up a lot of swear words at school? How do you handle it?

If, of course, you don't mind me asking.

Ahhh... One of my favorites. Usually said while doing some housework or yardwork, and something unpleasant happens, like trying to fit a 60 inch tub into a 60 inch room......


One i picke dup from 28 Days Later that has been in common use with me lately is "Fucking Hell!" I love that one.

well let me put it this way ...

when he was two we were told by the daycare owner that he was standing on a chair outside in the middle of the playground yelling 'fuck you' over and over again and laughing.

(he's heard us say 'fuck' - mostly me when driving - but never fuck you)

he seems to know whats right or wrong but he does pick up some stuff from kids ..

one kid had him saying :

i'm sex-ay, i'm sex-ay

another one taught him the word buttocks ... which he pronounces but-tocks ...

but he doesnt say the bad words now because he already heard them from us and knows its wrong ...


just the other day i had to say to him :

'for fucks sakes, you know you're not supposed to say shit !!'

I think it really just depends on the situation. Generally, I don't do it. I just don't find it necessary. Seems as though when I DO swear it's among friends and it's just for a laugh ;) Any other time is just when I'm really angry about something...which doesn't happen too often.

I agree with Urge and I think a few others who said they can't stand it when it's in front of small children. I totally agree. It's not cute at all to me when toddlers go around saying shit, etc...and I HATE when their parents think it's funny and/or cute ;) Maybe once...after that...not so much.

How do we mechanize this duel? I vote no insults, but rather raw and creative uses of the viler forms of language. Oh, and it has to be in English, as well.
