No my daughter isn't allowed to cuss around me. She says "that sucks" sometimes but that's about as far as she's allowed. She's 12.


This. And it grates on my nerves when they use sucks.

It's the little things like please, thank you and clean language that pays off in adulthood.

Is this like a cool parent thing or are we in an age where between internet and social media some people just figure its pointless to be hardline about it

Our kids will imitate or repeat whatever they hear or see from parents, siblings, extended family, friends, and media. What we model, watch, or listen too, or tolerate will definitely find a ready audience in our children. And what goes (on) around (them) will surely come around.

Parents are just happy if their sons don’t want to chop their dicks off and their daughters don’t run off with a ______ guy.

My son is 11 almost 12 and he says "that sucks" but that's as far as he goes, at least around me. If cuss some, but do my best to keep it toned down around him.

That made snot come out. Ha.

And to the OP: regularly cussing shows lack of class, and is trashy. Don't get upset if people treat you like trash if cuss words are apart of your regular speech.

I rarely cuss in front of females. Mostly a slip out. With buddies depends on the convo. Not in front of kids. If you have to use it then you lack proper vocabulary skills.

People in Chicago drop f bombs like "hellos"

I was taught "you are your father's son". My dad made sure we repped him properly.

Moral of the story....if you cuss on the regular, don't get mad if people treat you like you are classless trash. If speaking in that way is that important to you then own that you are trash proudly.

Look at the role models starting at the top.

‘Grab ‘em by the pussy.’ I think I heard that one.

We need better role models for kids.

what we heard was hearsay, not making a political statement, but wasn't he just accused of saying that, or was it confirmed? really don't recall

It was an audio recording.

Not trying to be political other than point out role model status.

gotcha, not referring to that specifically but there's a difference between "locker room" talk and how you express yourself in public society, seems like a lot of people aren't aware of this

True.

It’s a ‘bleed over’ effect too.

Suppose times change and the kids are just a reflection of how things are. Used to be ‘darn tootin’ was a cuss word, lol.

true, and it's kind of sad to see, I get pleasantly surprised every once in awhile by young'ns

if we said darn or dang at home when I was a kid it my parents ears would perk up to see what else would be coming, if we used the word lie improperly or called someone a liar there was a verbal reprimand as a minimum, using the n word was a pop across the mouth if not an arse whooping

Gotcha.

Yeah I grew up in Glendale next to the Parks, as kids we proactively lived there. The first time I dressed out in HS was the Easter Tourney, so I'll always have good memories of it.
