Funny thing, I didn't even know the word "piss" was a swear until I moved to Utah and went to LDS business college. You can imagine how I found out. Still makes me giggle.

I agree with whats-her-name (sorry, I'm new). I never really understood what makes one word "bad" and another with same meaning "good." For instance the word ass is bad where the word butt or bottom or butocks... all ok??? Ass is a much prettier word, why did it get the forbidden label? I'd much rather talk about my ass than my bottom or my "anus," eeeeeew, talk about an icky word right there. Doesn't exactly conjure up sweet images for me. But I do love my ass, my gulteous buttamus, my bootie. The same thing goes for the word shit. How does poop compair? Or fecal matter.... uh. But shit gets the bad rap. Silly to me. I don't like the "f" bomb. Just personal preference. I hate the way it's used sometimes. Sex is a much prettier word in this case. "Sexual", that's pretty. The word "intercourse" just makes me wince. You wanna have what? That just doesn't sound very fun to me. Maybe you shouldn't do it, I mean... did your doctor say it was ok? I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels that way about words. I have 3 kids all under 8. I don't encourage them to "swear" cuz they gotta get along with their teachers and stuff. Also, I try not to do it in front of them so much cuz I can't imagine that makes it easier. In all, its just a weird society-based thing to me, and that's what I tell them.

Absofuckinglutely. Sometimes there are no effective phrases that curse words punch in, like "what the fuck?" or "holy shit!" (which incidentally my son said at two--with correct intent--when he encountered a huge pile of ants). "Gosh darn it to heck" simply doesn't cover it. I've tried various grandma phrases (ie: "son of batch of biscuits"), but I swear it just makes me hungry. We do try to watch it most of the time, but we slip up. My spouse is also in the military and although that's no excuse for having a sailor mouth....wait, yes it is. He defends this nation willingly. He can say whatever the fuck he wants (as long as it's not about the government or the president).

I do, sometimes like a sailor. And if I catch either my daughter or stepson using even fake swear words (like freaking for example, or sucks) I chastise them for it and sometimes give them consequences. I tell them that the seven deadly words are Mommy Words, and when they are a Mommy (or Daddy) they can use them as much as they like. Yeah, it's really lazy of me, but it works.

Ok, I'll admit it. I've got a major pottymouth. Sometimes swearing is the only way to really get your point across whether you're telling a story, telling another driver what you really think, or even squealing about a stubbed toe. I'll say things without thinking and immediately will slap my hand over my mouth and pray that Kaleb didn't hear me. I try to censor myself but Kaleb is literally *always* with me and sometimes I just can't. Lol. When he does hear me, I'll usually get a sharp glare or a "What did you say, mommy?", so I'm happy he's at least taken the "Bad words are for grown-ups, not little boys" lesson to heart. *phew* Who knows what will happen once he's in school and the kids are using swear words on a daily basis.

I never curse in front of my kids. Ever. That's why I curse constantly on my blog.

I guess I'm a bit of a goody-goody. You won't find it on my blog and you won't hear me do it in front of my baby. I'm one of those people who uses "gosh" like it's going out of business. Well, maybe I'll throw out a piss here or a damn there when I'm with friends or extremely upset, but I didn't grow up in a home that cursed so I guess I'm just not programmed for it. I try to keep it clean :)

I agree with the savvy moms who know there is no shame in a potty mouth since it goes in the grown up activity category, like driving. The reactions are key, and the parental domination of never saying shit makes it juicy to do so. I may swear in front of Aston or Indiana Jones will and we just check in with him that he knows it is a grown up word, aka not to be used in school where an adult can hear him! Once when he was 4ish, during a freestyle prayer riff, he says: And God loves me even if I say the A word or the B word or the S word, even though I don't even know what the B word is, but Justin at school said it is pretty bad. ROTFLMAO!!!! The next day I asked what the S word was and he said, stupid. He has never been intrigued by the whole thing. He has said: That sucks, and when I asked, What did you say? He says, Just trying it out. But if he asks me what they mean, I try to give him an idea of the nature of the insult without going into detail. It's like a parenting challenge for me.

I was a waitress for fifteen years. A little insight, we have potty mouths. So, it took a lot of time and effort for me to curb my bad habits. Luckily, by the time my oldest started repeating everything, I had myself under control. Not working in a restaurant helped a lot. I don't swear in front of my kids except for the occasional slip up. I'm sure when they get older they will do their fair share of cursing but for right now I thinks it's best to keep them as innocent as possible. They grow up so much faster these days. Why help it along? One problem I do have though is being aware of what I watch on TV. One evening, when my oldest was three I fed them dinner in the living room so I could watch the early viewing of The Sopranos. She turned to me and said, "Did he just say f**ing?" "Yes, but we don't use that word" "What f**ing?" "Yes" "Why don't we say f**ing? "It's not nice and mommy and daddy don't use it so you shouldn't" She did the same thing after she heard her Grandpa say dammit. Those little stinkers will sneak it in as much as possible if they find out they're not supposed to say it. Kellie www.momranoutscreaming.com
