You are NOT old fashoined. Just a decent, loving parent.

I wasn't implying anything, the fact is that we were all raised differently

Swear words are like ghost peppers. Used sparingly, they add just the right flavor to the right conversation. In excess, you'll just want to stick your head under water.

You curse openly, so of course you would be unfamiliar with proper etiquette.

Allow me...A doily (or doilie) is an ornamental mat, originally the name of a fabric made by Doiley, a 17th-century London draper.[1] Doily earlier meant "genteel, affordable woolens", evidently from the same source.

Women and profanity is neither attractive nor classy. Regardless of your educational background and career, if your vocabulary is not extensive enough to where you must use vulgar language in order to make a point, you will appear as uneducated.

That makes no sense.
If I ask a girl how to synthesize a methylated alkaloid, and she answers but adds a fvck yea at the end. She's appears uneducated?
Do you get nose bleeds a lot?

I think it's hilarious when certain women try to keep their own gender in the dark ages.

Allowing women to vote was the beginning of the end of society.

oh stop. i want to know why one would have to be removed before, um, intercourse.

Just_Dot

Oh, and those of you raising your kids *not* to curse...trust me, when they're out of earshot, they would make me blush!! Even my strict Mormon and Muslim kids swear like sailors when they're around friends. I just ask them if they kiss ther moms wiith that mouth.:laugh:

Just_Dot

Can you imagine the glorious pattern a doily would make on your *kitten* cheeks? (or your face cheeks, depending on what position you took?)

i cursed all my kids lives and i still curse now. of course my daughter wants me not to curse in front of my 5 1/2yr old grandson but it slips out. my kids are in their early 30's and rarely cuss unless something pisses them off. i have toned down my language a bit because i'm 50+ and figure i don't want to scare all the geriatrics that live in our park. but that doesn't mean i don't swear with my besties, at home, the car or just hanging out.

one day my grandson was playing his video game in the front room and i'm at my pc at my desk in the dining room. he cannot see my face because the monitor is between us. suddenly he just starts saying, "*kitten*, f*cking, f*ucker, etc" over and over again. well, i decide not to respond. soon i hear, "nana, did you hear me?" i said, "yes!" and went back to my facebook, laughing silently. he didn't say it again that day. i figured he was trying to get a rise out of me and it didn't work. his other grandparents probably would have gone over and popped his mouth and there are times i have done that too. but this time i figured it was a test and i passed.

i'm very good at cussing at other drivers when they cut me off, stop short or almost cause me an accident. well, one day when my grandson was riding with his grandparents and somebody cut off grandpa, from the carseat in the back comes, "you *kitten*, drive better!" (or some approximation of that). they both just looked at him. he had to be all of 2 1/2yrs old. when they asked me if i knew where he got it, i admitted it and explained that he has to learn that ppl are going to swear around him and he has to learn what he can and cannot say. they couldn't say anything after that. lol! i also found that if a swear word slips out and i say oops, he will say the word automatically. if i just swear and keep going he doesn't copy it (at least not then).

what i won't tolerate is his calling me dummo or stupid when he is mad. what's funny is he didn't get that from me. he got it from spongebob square pants. lol. my daughter and the other grandmother won't let him watch it now. but it doesn't stop him. my daughter doesn't want ppl swearing around him. but she really needs to get over it because ppl do that anyway.

kaaaaaaa

I was putting my son to bed early the other night for being a brat all day and disrespecting his mother.(he was tired) Anyway, on the way up the stairs he called me a "Vagina". It was hard not to laugh. Vagina- ha ha ha!

LOLLL that's hilarious :laugh:

My kids have heard and used curse words. They know when it is inappropriate to use those words, like in public or in front of the grandparents & other people's kids. I won't hold them to some unreal standard because someone on the internets says I should. They use manners appropriately, they do not talk back to their elders, and they know that I am in charge. They do their chores and are generally good kids. I don't think saying *kitten* is going to mentally scar them.

I really can't understand what makes one group of words so offensive. It's just a collection of consonants and vowels, just like any other word. It's just... noise. What's the BFD?!

That said, I do make a distinction between those that use them to emphasize a point, and folks like my inbred, knuckle-dragging neighbor who use the f-word like a comma.

Savyna

eh, not a big deal. they're going to be around it ALL the time when they get older.
My parents cursed all the time too. & i also turned out ok :P

I honestly think its cute/funny to hear a little kid curse, especially when they mispronounce it...OMG adorable xD

Id rather have my little girl curse & listen to rob zombie rather than have her nose in books all day. EW!!

Ha! whats wrong with books? Do people who curse not read? Did I miss the memo?

what kid/teen wants to read? I dont know anyone who reads for fun...
Im saying id rather her not read, but, if she ever wants to, then ok.

I'm a kid (well an adult now) who loves to read. As a parent (or a soon to be parent) how could you not encourage your child to not foster a love of reading? It broadens horizons and their vocabulary you know. I know a ton of people who read for fun.
Good luck to your child when she's born.

Wow. I really did not think that there was going to be so many people who say that it's ok to swear in front of their children. Personally I feel that people who swear sound trashy and I lose respect for them. Kids are so Innocent, why do you want to take that away from them by teaching them that it's ok to swear? Teachers have enough stuff to deal with in school they sure as heck don't need a bunch of kids swearing and showing disrespect. My children are 10 and 7 and I will NOT be swearing in front of them or anywhere else. Gosh I just can't believe there are so many who are ok with it.....

Because not everyone defines respect like you. Do you know what context is? Because that means a lot in how a sentence or even just a single word is taken. If I say "mother****er" after stubbing my toe, you're telling me that's no different than calling someone a mother****er?

Why don't you just not have kids? Wouldn't that be a lot easier? We swear in front of our puppies and horses and there is never a problem.
