[quote=Anonymous]My main reason for frowning on this is not that I think it's inherently bad. It's that I think kids have less control that adults over their ability to turn it off in inappropriate situations. As an adult, there are situations in which I swear freely (having a drink with friends) and situations in which it would be detrimental to my relationships with other people (in a job interview). And, as an adult, I'm pretty clued into the social differences. Kids aren't, yet. And the consequences of swearing in inappropriate situations much outweigh any consequences of NOT swearing.[/quote]
