[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I concur with the teacher. You should not say "darn" or "gosh", because they are too close to the "damn" and "God" that they replace. Anyway, they're boring. I tell my children to get a little creative with their swearing ersatz. "Oh my sainted pants!" - old classic "Blistering Barnacles!" - Tintin "Lumpish codpiece!" - Shakespearean (could mean limp penis) My 5 year old daintily says : "Oh my gracious goodness!" in such old lady tones, it's hilarious. At her age, I imitated my mother and swore out loud in front of my very proper teacher: "Merde merde merde!" Oh yes, not what you mention it, he told the class that they should say "Oh my goodness gracious" instead of the others. If they are heard saying "OMG" or "Oh my gosh" or "Oh My God" then they will be given two warnings, then he will call the parents or something like that. Looking forward to meeting this guy on Back to School night... [/quote][/quote]
