Last year, my seven-year-old was playing Super Mario Bros on the Wii. At some point, she said, "What's my ass doing up THERE?" We had to talk about not cussing so much. She also likes to say "JESUS!" a lot. Apparently, she doesn't do this at school. I hope. Oops.
why do we care when our kids are a direct reflection of us, hypothetically speaking. if cussing was really bad we wouldnt do it. its great and so fucking expressive its unmatched. i know the reason i just think its stupid. because we believe things we are told even if they dont make sense. everyone cusses or should. highly recommended.
If we taught our kids to cuss all they want just don't get in trouble such at teachers or other parents or whatever hassled us would that be wrong? My best friend growing up could say fuck around his parents when he was tiny, nobody cared. Nothing disturbing about it. And the kid is not the most successful childhood friend I have.
I don't curse much but have no problem with others that do. When my youngest son was only 2 or 3, he once said "Shit" when my wife slammed on her brakes. When my wife asked what he just said, he said "Shit, mommy, because you almost hit that car" with no understanding that it was a "bad" word (he heard her using that word when slamming on her brakes in the past).
I never cursed until I got married My wife taught me all the curse words....Before that, I had no idea what those words meant. I was pure as the driven snow....saving myself for Marriage and all that.
