I'm a little bit ashamed to say I cussed in front of my kids (something which my son brings up occasionally ) but they turned out alright. The first time I heard my son say sh*t, I nearly fainted. But I don't cuss much anymore. *DUCK !!!!* Lightning may hit !
Do not resent growing old. Many are denied the privilege.
If I can't say it on BN, why should she get to say it in Walmart?
But I'll admit that the few times I wander into there, I pretty much expect to hear it. Usually me, before I get out of the car...."what are all these @#$% carts doing in the parking spaces?"

It seems to me this is his routine. I am very guilty of cussing in front of my kids. Amazingly they are all doing great in life and seem unharmed. My 17 and 18 year olds rarely cuss and when they do I don't lose my mind over it. My 6 yr old has slipped out a few and I did stop and tell him when he is as old as I am he can use those words. My mom and I have had several discussions about this. My reply is, "would you rather I be a drug addict, a full blown drunk, a hooker?! WTF!!!" I think that guy was way over the line and maybe has a small part of his anatomy that he was trying to overcompensate for.

My mom just handed me the credit card and went out to smoke.
