[quote=Anonymous]Three girls in teens-20s. No hate speech eve (and they are so socially conscious that they wouldn't. I've heard them respond tactfully when they've heard people using the word retarded and gay as slang) Personally I really, really hate to hear f**k. Maybe my kids use it outside, but never home because they know it bothers me. I just really think it's crude and cheap and when tossed around as a filler word it just makes the speaker sound trashy. That said, my DH uses it often (oddly, only in recent years. He never swore like that for the first 20 years I knew him!) When they were younger I had no issue with potty words (butt, fart) but taught them they were not polite words to say around others. It wasn't that the word was off limits as much as they needed to learn why it might not be appropriate to others. I wouldn't let them use stupid in reference to a person but okay for an inanimate object.[/quote]
