Don't want DD's first word to be the F Bomb...

These are great. Reminds me of the time my then 3yo son experimented with Daddy's favorite driving swear word. J****s C****t.

Again, used complettely appropriately. I asked him what it means, and he said "it's what you say when things aren't going the way you want them to.

My husband completely stopped saying JC after my sin said, at the dinner table with four grandparents, completely naturally "JC, we're out of butter." It still cracks me up.

I have asked him numerous times to clean it up because pretty soon she'll be talking. He says he'll try and keeps going back to his old ways. I think he still believes that her speech development is a ways off and that he has plenty of time to modify his language. I try to tell him it's quite the opposite, that babies are little language sponges right now and DD will be dropping the F bomb in no time if he keeps it up. Am I overeacting? Is 6 months too early to pick up on this? Or does DH need a big bar of soap in the mouth?

I cuss like a sailor. I have pretty much given into the fact that my son will eventually drop a cuss word on me one day soon. Especially since he sits in traffic with me and I have my daily ritual of calling people everything under the sun while trying to cross the woodrow wilson bridge....

this is the best thread of the day. i am in tears from laughing so hard!! we are all doomed. my husband and i both have potty mouths, and we were also raised by parents who swore in front of us. we just always knew not to go around using those words in front of teachers or other grown-ups. i'm just hoping our son will have the same common sense we had! if not, we'll try to clean it up and hope he isn't too scarred.

My son was forced out of the tub the other night and scream "I am fucking sick of this." Hmmmm, where could he have heard that? I seriously laughed my ass off, althoug not in front of him.

my daughter's father gets really stressed in traffic (i can relate) and has a series of really colorful, unique phrases he uses to describe other drivers. My personal favorite is "cheese weasels." (I laughed just typing that.) I'm hoping DD picks up on that particular phrase and not his *other* phrase... "c*ck gobblers." Egad.

OK, I'll tell my traffic story. DD was about 2 1/2 and in her car seat, of course. I called another driver an idiot. From the back seat comes, proudly, "You mean f**king idiot, right, mommy?"
