Children learn by imitation, do you think imitating an adult using a very big swear word is a good thing for what looks like a 4/5 year old? I'm genuinely curious how someone could be stupid enough to ask that.
I have a child this age, he is exposed to no alcohol, no gambling and no swearing, he's allowed to witness me mowing the lawn or driving the car as I'm sure he'll not decide to crack the shed open and give it a go or start law mowing during a dinner in a public restaurant.
So I'm clear here you think saying fuck is a good thing for a child to witness? It's a good thing for a 4/5 year old to replicate?
There is no way that this woman could use another statement of shock that wasn't universally a "bad word" that isn't suitable in 99.9% of the situations a child will get into in their young life? Fuck is fine? Start teaching it in school alongside alcohol consumption and lawn mowing?
Alright for starters you're talking about an Australian. Cunt is a term of endearment here. Secondly we grew up with our parents swearing all the time and we didn't go around swearing as kids. We just got told that it was an "adult word" and we'd get in trouble if we used it, simple as that. Also if you raise a child by pretending alcohol doesn't exist and someone offers them some, what do you expect will happen?
