    JD is an outhouse of a human being but this sounds like regular parenting shit that occasionally happens. I have a nephew who has definitely needed to be told to shut the hell up occasionally.

      As a father I often find it difficult not to swear in front of my children. However, I never swear directly at my children. Very inappropriate use of language , that to me signals potential abuse. Can you imagine how a father like that would respond if his child uses the same words at him?

        The internet: Fucking shitass swear words lul. They’re just words like any other.

        Also the internet: Think of the children when you say naughty bad words! Also show them all the tits and naked europe but never violence or death either!

          That’s really missing the point. I don’t see the big issue with swearing in front of children. Hugely different dynamic if you swear directly at children.

          The question you should ask is: is the type of language I am using with my kid likely to cause a fight if I had targeted at a stranger in a bar. If the answer is yes, then it’s inappropriate.

      “Shut the hell up” is not an appropriate way to quiet a child, from infancy to adulthood. It’s rude and causes more issues than it solves.
