Dosent bother me happens all the time people curse they forget so do I. I would feel uncomfortable telling someone to watch their language.



Same here especially sine I have the mouth of a truck driver/sailor hybrid so who am I to talk?

Others cursing in front of your kids?

I generally don't say anything. It happens, it's a part of life. But if someone is going on a rant or something and it's going on and on, then I have jokingly said "EARMUFFS!" and covered DS's ears. I only do this with family though and it's my way of getting the point across to just take it down a notch with all the swearing.

Others cursing in front of your kids?

No one really curses that terrible excent my husband who I constantly tell to stop. However, I would never day anything to someone else unless it was like directed towards my child. Ex. Did you take a sh*t? I can't imagine someone really saying that but if it did then I would absolutely say something.

She hears it in my house so it doesn't bother me. She was taught some words are for adults only, and will let us know when we say a bad word lol That is how I was brought up, but I have a potty mouth so don't go by me.

Not a big deal to me. DD knows words she can say and not say.

I wouldn't say anything because I'd be a hypocrite. I have an awful potty mouth. I'm surprised DD1 who is a parrot and repeats everything, hasn't cursed yet. I'm working on keeping it clean but it's a very bad habit of mine.



Same here... One of my first words was sh!t

Now that I think about it, DH said douche the other day and she repeated it! And I made fun of him so bad bc he always says that if she curses, it would be from me.

I'm a terrible mother though lol. We listen to Howard Stern in the car. Luckily she doesn't pay attention bc she's too busy talking to herself lol.



I listened to Howard with my DS until recently. He picked up F It from a Bradley Cooper interview. At that point I knew I was lucky it wasn't worse!!!

I do change the station if he's playing sound clips from porn. Gotta draw the line somewhere lol

Curse words..no, I don't care if people curse in front of them.

However, my son was in the presence of a couple of DH's low life family members who used a couple of derogatory, socially inappropriate terms and I went bananas. I won't tolerate that type of language being said in front of my kids. Quite frankly, I don't want to hear it either and I would die if my child ever used words like that at school. WE don't speak like that. EVER.

This I completely agree with. I need to watch her around my FIL.

In my experience the more you make things taboo, the more kids want to say it.

I curse. We curse. But my two don't. They know they are bad words, though.

I am bothered when it's rampant cursing - like every other word and/or with disrespectful connotations. Like teens hanging near a playground and saying ***** and such. I hate that. I'll speak up. But an adult cursing in passing? Nah.

If you curse in front of my kids then you need to put a dollar in their piggy bank. My brother dropped a $20 and paid in advance Chat Icon

This is all in good fun btw and we all are quick to catch someone and be like "You owe a dollar!"

But we do try to watch ourselves, seriously.
