Kids & Parents & Swearing

Just wanted to say that I don’t really get kids and parents who are okay with swearing affectionately at each other, and I get shocked when I hear it or read about it (Mittsie!)…

Only because if I did that as a kid, I wouldn’t be alive to blog or tweet about it.

What do you think? Do you swear at your parents affectionately (calling them a bitch, asshole.. etc) and don’t get your ass whupped for it?

On to Wordle

I like to do Wordles now and then get a nice overview of what I blog about.

Here’s one Wordle cloud I created.

It sorts through your text and the word that appears the most, becomes the biggest.

The 5 biggest words?

1. Money
2. Like
3. Just
4. Financial
5. Save

Sounds about right…

Spammers are getting trickier

About the Author

Just a girl trying to find a balance between being a Shopaholic and a Saver. I cleared $60,000 in 18 months earning $65,000 gross/year. Now I am self-employed, and you can read more about my story here, or visit my other blog: The Everyday Minimalist.

No way – the worst I ever said to my Mum was “shut up” and was in so much trouble!

Even now I try not to swear if my Mum is around (and would never ever swear to her). But occassionally (usually if I have run into something – at 26 I’m still a bit of a klutz!) a 4 letter word slips out.

I hate the fact that swearing has become part of every day life and is accepted these days.

Now that I’m a “grown-up” my mother swears occasionally in front of me. It always shocks me. I would have gotten my face slapped hard had so much as a “damn” come out of my mouth as a kid. Even thinking of my son swearing at me makes my head spin. In fact, that’s probably what would happen if he did! I’m of the “you don’t hit your kids” camp but I managed to get that no-no across to him just as clearly as my parents managed to get it across to me.

We were never allowed to swear as kids. The only words that we are allowed to use is Sugar or Damn.

Even as an adult now I am scared to swear in front of my parents even if it’s affectionate. I have a mild potty mouth but when I am with my parents I watch what I say.

Oh Lord no, I’d be dead standing up if I swore at my parents when I was a kid. Now? I’d just shoot myself and save them the trouble. No way would that be ok. Heck, pissed as I get at them, I just shut up, I can count the number of times I’ve raised my voice in frustration on one hand.

I love wordles. i discovered it through the happiness project and now play with it all of the time.
About kids and swearing? I was allowed to swear growing up. It wasn’t really a big deal as long as it was used in context…thus f@ck was okay if you were mad. I knew my mom was mad when she started dropping f-bombs! That being said, I don’t think a swear could ever be affectionate and I don’t even understand friends that “affectionately” call each other names. I also think that because I was allowed to swear, it was never a bug deal for me when I was a pre-teen/teenager to make sure every second word was a cuss word.

I love Wordles FB! I used Wordles for my company’s marketing campaign and everyone commented on how awesome the marketing materials looked.
