WHAT Did You Say?!

"By the time kids go to school now, they're saying all the words that we try to protect them from on television," Jay told the Montreal Gazette. "We find their swearing really takes off between [ages] 3 and 4."
Moms, how do you handle a case of potty mouth in your house?
I disagree that it’s always the parents fault! I have 2 grandsons that live with me, ages 5 & 6. The 5 yr.old says bad words occassionally, the 6 yr.old doesn’t. No one in my household swears! The only place we could think of where he would get it is, either from TV or other kids! So don’t always blame the parents/grandparents!
One mom I know was faced with her young son picking up swearing from school. She explained that just like some families eat junk food or make unhealthy food choices, some people use “junk” or “unhealthy” words. They literally make people feel sicker. I think this is true, I feel worse if I swear.

Mrs. C, that’s STILL the parents’ fault! With children as young as 5 and 6, it’s a parent’s job to monitor television and friendships. None of my kids have ever sworn, nor do they even know those words exist, because my husband and I never swear in front of them, we don’t watch TV, and we’re selective with their friends. I get accused of sheltering my kids. My response is, so???! No, I can’t protect them from everything, but while they’re young, I can darn well try.







Potty Mouth IS the parent’s fault!The end!
