[quote=Anonymous]I agree that words are just words, which is why I don't have an issue with my middle school daughter using that language with her friends, especially in text conversations.  She knows that it is not to be used around teachers or other parents and she also knows it's fine by me if she uses it at home to some extent.  My husband and I are not against cursing.  She and her older sister are very articulate and write well for school assignments so I don't worry that this is impacting their overall communication.  I see this as part of life in that you learn where to use certain types of language and if you're an intelligent person you can shift very easily as needed.

In terms of the other things that previous posters have suggested are coming I would NOT agree.  My oldest just graduated from high school and she has never been involved in things like oral sex parties or even drinking because it's not what she and her friends enjoy. For the most part they would hang out and do sleepovers and watch movies and talk or something laid back like that.  They do still curse like sailors though and I'm ok with that when I overhear it because they are really good kids who are all kind, funny and intelligent.  Pick your battles and make sure your daughter knows not to use the language around you or other adults if you don't like it.[/quote]
