[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your child said "dang" in front of you, and you didn't correct them, I would think less of you. I'm completely serious.[/quote] I would wonder how you self-sooth, with all that pent up frustration and lack of expression. I'd assume probably prescription pills. I'm completely serious. [/quote] But F&ck is unacceptable? $hit? Where is the line?[/quote] Swearing or "bad language" is not about "the line" but context and discretion. Why is "shit" necessarily more of a bad word than "crap?" It's sort of weird when you think about it - one isn't inherently more "bad" than the other - humans just sort of decided. Kids generally don't know how/when to use certain language, as they think it's all "oooh so bad." But I don't think "dang it" is bad at all, not any more than "dag nabbit!" or "darn" and the like. Sometimes you just need something to say. [/quote]
