What a beautiful day it was yesterday,warm and sunny.So i took my kids to the park and i was going to read my book on the bench while they climb the monkey bar when my daugther ask me "what's d!ck spell?"Great...i told her what the word was with trying to keep a straight face..HA!But seriously even on the bench i was sitting on it said "smell like @ss"Come on now,i love the fact that my kids are learning how to read but i wish it wouldn't be those words.I know it's from all those older kids that come late at night to write stupid stuff all over the park,but i wish it would stop.The city should at least come and paint...even know the kids will come back again.

My oldest boy hes 3 years old and has picked up a good bit of words he shouldnt be saying at my sisters. Not saying its my sister but they do ahve a teenage boy in the house and he says a "bad" word every other word that comes out of his mouth. Ive told my sister many of times to tell them to stop i dont mean words like "da*n" its "GD" and "F" and so on. and when my son gets home he'll say them and he'll get in trouble and i'll tell him they arent nice words and he shouldnt be saying things like that and he looks at me and says well they do it i said well you dont do what everyone else does it will get you in trouble. I know this might sound harsh but one day he came home and sad "GD" and i put pepper in his mouth wasnt alot or a hand full nothing like that it was a bit on the top of my finger and ever sence then hes not said it anymore..Sounds mean but it worked and he dont say them words anymore.

My niece is young yet, she'll be 4 in June, but when she hears a bad word and asks about it, we just tell her it's not a nice word and not to say it. The bigger deal we make of it, the bigger kick she gets out of it. And she really can't read yet so we don't have to worry about graffiti.
