[quote=Anonymous]So many pearl clutchers. Former preschool teacher here. It’s entirely common and developmentally normal for preschool kids to experiment with swearing. It’s certainly not a reason for parents to judge each other or end a friendship. Kids are smart. They are learning words have power. And Not all kids respond well to an authoritative parenting style. OP you need to try some different techniques. Because I said so is not going to work for a lot of kids. Just because your child is compliant doesn’t make this other child or his parents bad or worse parents than you. You’re the adult. Try some new strategies. Get creative. Or just end the arrangement if you can’t figure out how to connect with this child. Based on the tone of your post, it doesn’t sound to me like you even want to make this work and have already written him off, which is a real shame.[/quote]
