Is it such a big deal?

I find it odd that people say cursing's not a big deal, that they're just words, but won't allow their kids to say them or they find it shocking when kids say the "S word" or "the B word".
 
"Let" implies you have any control over it. ;)

I'd encourage proper language, but eventually the swearing-damn will break free.

When they're younger and actually care what you think, you do. They still care when you're angry or disappointed in them.
 
cursing can be so tacky at improper times and situations, I think I'd concentrate on getting my child to know when it is and is not appropriate.

that is, if I ever figure that out myself.
 
teach kids wholes languages is da cuss

adults<of type so happpppppy use da whateva words whens suit them or on cue

ans give it back um theys lurrve it sooooooo much

lucky da kids learn young adults full of shit or world be in da crap hole ta no where centurys ago

so Hope eternals :-)
 
Swearing, no. I wouldn't. I don't do it myself (well, at least extremely rarely). It makes someone sound less educated because they can't come up with a better word for the situation.

Their use would be strongly discouraged.
 
Well, I'm nowhere near ready to having kids yet (I'm fresh out of high school, Class of 2010!) but when/if I do I think I will allow "mild" cursing at younger ages (things like crap) and once they become teenagers the bigger ones would be allowed but certainly not encouraged and certainly not an obscene degree. It's what my mom did with me and I turned out pretty fantastic, if I do say so myself.

I myself only really curse when I get physically hurt but I do say "damn" quite a bit (not in an angry matter but more of a matter-of-fact kind of way).
 
No. Juvenile children aren't cute. My kids would be cute.
 
I find it funny when little kids pull out a swear, always makes me smile.

I don't think I'll be having kids so I don't have to worry.
 
I don't make a fuss when mine do. They get a little thrill when they do it, and then I give them a "Okay, enough" look.

The forbidden fruit is the most tempting, and I don't like to create more of it than needed.
 
I wouldn't encourage and try and stop them from doing it, just for the purpose of not getting in trouble at school/offend people.
 
No I dont want to hear it from children. Once a child is 18 then they can muther fucker themselves to death, lol.
 
I think for the most part, I would be a parent who is a bit more...loose on things like that.

I think part of the allure of swearing, much like drinking and smoking, is that we're often telling/told not to do it.

As such, I'd imagine I'd likely sit down with my son or daughter and go through the 'swear words' and why they're words that shouldn't be used...at least in public. If you take away some of the allure, I think you can leave it up to the child to actually know when it is and isn't ok to swear.
 
I'd probably take the same approach that I do with my students. (I teach foreign languages, for those who don't know.) If they want to know what a word means, I'd tell them, but I'd also explain the kind of contexts in which it would be appropriate and inappropriate to use.

Not that I plan on having kids any time soon...
 
If they didn't get the swear words from me, I'd ask them where they got them from and I would want to them to know what they mean.

And maybe teach them when to say them and when not.

I care too much.
 
Well, I'll never be having kids so I don't have to worry thank goodness. :p However, if I did have kids, I would discourage swearing/cursing and wouldn't give them an example to emulate. I hardly ever use cuss/swear words myself in general conversations.

I think it's somewhat cool that some parents have this type of "open" relationship with their kids, OR, that they think it's ok to just be themselves. I know both good and bad examples of parents who exercised this type of openness with their kids.

The only problem is that sometimes kids pick this up a little too much, either from both their parents and their peers. Who really wants a foul mouthed kid? Sometimes, kids these days overuse curse words and it's just too much. Every other word is a vulgarity and it comes across as shoddy/poor upbringing. IMHO
