[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The term thought police comes to mind. Why must we raise our children to be so rigid? I keep a civil tongue around my kids. I've also taught my kids they aren't to use foul language. I've also taught my kids early on not to be little parrots and if an adult is having a conversation and not directly talking to them they need to tune it out. At least pretend not to listen. I did once correct my friend for using foul language around children. We were at a playground. Beyond a child centered place like a playground or daycare, I cant imagine correcting anyone else. The world doesn't revolve around your child and its best your child understand that. Nothing is worse than the 20 year old who feels everyone should act and think as they do. [/quote] Publicly cursing and in the vicinity of children is by definition not a thought crime, so thought police doesn't really come into play here. Still don't think OP should say anything.[/quote]
