[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 10yo DD just told my husband that her friends mom thinks my DD is a bad influence because she says the word "sucks". (DD's friend reported that's what her mom said).  Is friends mom being too sensitive, or am I raising a cretin?[/quote]

You are raising a trash talking youngster. I wouldn't welcome her friendship with my children. "Sucks,"  "crap" and 'oh my god' are not allowed in our house among [b]adults [/b]or teens, much less 10 year olds. [/quote]

how do you control/discipline adults?

Different poster but, I wouldn't be surprised if PP simply asks people to refrain from such language in her home, and asks anyone to leave who shows the astounding disrespect to not oblige the host's wishes in this matter. I know people who do not allow any form of even mild swearing in their home, or the phrases such as "oh my god/gosh", and that's what they do. I happen to think that it's ridiculous, but I'd also be the first person to say that it's terribly rude to swear in the home of someone who is made uncomfortable by it, and I don't know many adults who would persist in doing so.[/quote]

Or she just means the parents. That was my take.[/quote]
