[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm surprised everyone is so okay with this. I'm not uptight and swear like a sailor most of the time, but watch my mouth around my kids and at work. I especially avoid saying "Jesus Christ" because I know that offends some people and I don't want my kids to repeat it. "Damnit" is my Achilles heel for bad words, and my DC once repeated it over and over while I wheeled her around the grocery store in the cart. It was very embarrassing. I can understand why you don't want your 15 month old repeating that stuff. Is it going to cause lasting damage to your child? Of course not, but your mom should respect your wishes in your home, especially if you and your DH are religious. What about setting up a swear jar? Tell her that if she's going to speak like that around your house, she can add to the swear jar and you'll put that money in DC's 529.[/quote]
