[quote=Anonymous]If my kid told me to shut up, without cursing, I would end her. That kind of disrespect is unacceptable. I don't tell her to shut up. I don't tell my husband to shut up. And sometimes, I really, really, really want to. I use a sh8t ton of profanity. Like an embarrassing amount. I would never punish for profanity alone. I told my 11 year old that Demi Lovato was coming for dinner and she said, "Get the fuck outta here!" I would not bat an eyelash. I would punish for the attitude, not the profanity. She once cursed out of frustration in her aftercare program at her parochial school. I punished her for the attitude and poor sportsmanship but not for her use of the word f*ck. She used it judiciously and in an appropriate situational context, but it displayed her poor attitude and bad sportsmanship and I couldn't have that. [/quote]
