Kids who swear to their parents and vice versa

Okay, maybe I'm way out in left field with this, but I would never consider telling my parents to go fuck themselves, firstly out of respect, and secondly because I'd get cuffed up side the head.

So why is it that this is part of every day language in other families? I just don't get it...

 

I would never cuss to my parents. Actually, I cuss like a sailor, but it feel so weird cussing to them, and if I ever cussed them off, they'd be pissed as hell.


Now that I think of it, I wish I could cuss to my parents in a friendly way.

 

I never swore at my parents and my children are not allowed to swear, period. They are 3 & 5. It really saddens me when I hear little ones talk so trashy. I think it is the parents responsibility to try and curb their vocab around little ones. Little ones are like parrots, if they hear you say it they will say it.

 

my parent s and i swear around each other all the time,

its a hobby you could say

 

my parents cussed in front of me my whole life. and my sisters did for most of it.i didn't say a cuss word til i was in fifth grade and that was just to tell some jerks off. now i cuss a lot but i never have once said a cuss word in front of my parents. it just doesn't feel right, plus it helped me get away with a lot of things. lol.

sometimes my mom would try to get me to admit to cussing... that was funny. don't have to admit to drugs and sex, but "do you really never cuss? even when you have road rage?" is needed to be asked

 

Jerry, who is that ugly dude on the left of your sig?

 

my parents and i swear around each other quite a bit. it's always been like that i think, they just sucked at picking their words with care. oh well though, it never caused any problems for me, i'm good at not swearing when i shouldn't, except for damn, hell, screw, frig....

lalalalalala...

 

My parents are pretty indifferent to swearing, and so am I. They don't really cuss much, but they've cussed in front of me and vice versa. No big deal.

I'll always remember this one incident back in grade school, 1st grade. My dad used to cuss a lot every once in a while in heavy traffic, while driving me to school. Of course I was just curious as to what all those funny words meant, so in class I innocently raised my hand and asked "Mrs. Thompson, my dad said some stuff in the car this morning: 'Get your fucking butt out of the road you sonofabitch!' and I wonder what they mean..." I think my teacher just went into shock for a few minutes or something, hehe.

 

My parents cuss more than I do...

 

I can't call my mother you, I couldn't even think of swearing to her. By you I mean: "are you going to blablabla?". Well, it's harder to explain in English. I don't know if you understand.

 

same thing here

 

we rarely do, but if i get really into something i will and she usually wont say anything

 

we do it jokingly, and i only get away with it cause i am almost 25..
but if i seriously cussed at my parents, i wouldnt be here today...

 

I do it to and in front of my parents alot because they do it to me. The only way you can get a point across in my family is to say fuck a couple times in every sentence. Thats when they know you mean it. If you dont cuss in the sentence its brushed off as nothing. If somthing breaks in this house after a couple minutes the sentence will probably sound like this "You god damn mother fucking peice of shit fuckin shit from china sucks". Ive cussed at other peoples parents too usually when theyre giving me lectures. Its pretty fun, you should try it somtime.

 

we use "cuss" words in front of each other. to us, its just another word. but i would never dare to tell either of my parents to "fuck off" or somethign similar. road rage and when i watch the red sox are when i swear the most...


meh, woot woot!

 

my mom and other family members use terrible language, and so do i, just not generally around them. the few times i have slipped up and said something, they all acted so shocked that the "baby" could ever use those words. i feel like a dork though, trying to censor myself at 23 years old, lol.

 

My parents and I cuss/swear in front of each other, but we never cuss at each other.

 

The last time I swore around my mother, my father grabbed me and threw me down to the ground. He's an old fashioned guy who doesn't believe in swearing around women. I was 17 at the time. Haven't done it since.

 

my parents wouldnt be mad or yell, considering they both cuss, but i dont think id have the guts to tell them to fuck themselves (i dont think id have the guts to tell anyone that!)

 

i was taught that swear words are simply just words, and there is a time and place appropriate to use them. basically, my parents were mostly really lenient about certain things that they felt weren't that harmful, and strict about stuff that could put me in danger. they gave me just enough freedom that i didn't feel a need to act out severely, but gave me just enough boundaries that i was safe. i'm really greatful for how i was raised. they made some mistakes like all parents do, but for the most part, they did it right.
