Do you remember when you were a kid and you first learned how to cuss? I do. I was smitten. I looked for any opportunity to say my new found words without getting smacked.
Aubrey has picked up a few choice words here and there and as far as I know she has always asked me what they mean before using them.
She got into the car today and much like the Recess Panic Incident of 2010, she began talking about 100mph.
A: MOMMA! There are so many bad words that I can’t say at school.
Me: There are? You didn’t say them did you?
A: No…but like you should never say, STUPID or IDIOT or DEVIL or HELL at school. Should you Momma?
Me: Ah…no.
A: Because they are bad. Even if you whisper them in ears…
Me: Did you SAY that to somebody?
A: Ah…no. But STUPID, IDIOT, DEVIL and HELL they are really, really bad.
Um, yeah. Good talk.
What do your kids say when they get in the car after school that totally bewilders you?

So I wanna know who said that at school??
When my oldest was in 2nd grade, he got in trouble for writing a bad word on a note. We sat him and his sister down for a serious talk about bad language. John told a story about him and his buddy practicing their cussing and about how a cuss word just blurted out of his mouth at the dinner table, after which, his mother promptly jerked him up and smoked his bottom. Cussing is bad, and you just don't let those words in your heart and you don't say them, and you don't write them. Guilty son got it. He understood. He vowed not to do it again. Little sister just wanted to know what her daddy said at the dinner table.
When my daughter gets in the car the first thing I hear about is her boy drama . . .she is only in 1st grade!!!
That cracks me up that she kept repeating the words NOT to say. Sometime is DOES just feel good to say them!!!
