[quote=Anonymous]My 8 year old says "what the heck?" or sometimes just "what the?" I am fine with it because she just uses it to express surprise or bewilderment, like if her pen stops working or the door won't latch. And she's not saying an actual swear word or even something that sounds like a swear word (at least to me). I would be borderline on "what the frick?" If it was used the way my kid is using "what the heck?" I might allow it because it's not mean, but it's very close to the real swear, so I don't know. What I would absolutely not permit under any circumstances would be "frick you" or anything similar. That's rude even if it's not a swear. It's an insult, it's mean, it's disrespectful. Totally unacceptable language and there is no way to make it okay even swapping other words in for "frick".[/quote]
