I tried to not swear when my son was born, but that lasted about 3 days. After that, I always spoke freely in front of him.

Today, he's 27, and NEVER swears. He just doesn't do it, never did. His friends don't swear much either. They all saw it as another unseemly thing that older people do.

You give me hope

Okay, that's great (I guess)

But I'm not worried about my 27 year old swearing. I'm worried about my five year old doing it

  • Doesn't say curse words

  • Found out what Yiffing is

Definitely, there are trade offs

My kids developed a British accent due to Peppa Pig. They called popsicles “ice lollies” for years which was adorably hilarious.

Although admittedly, “ice lolly” is probably more correct as Popsicle was a brand name and is the equivalent of using “Kleenex” in place of “tissue”. Actually, maybe now I will start using ice lolly…

No lollygagging, only ice lollying

My niece had a barking phase from watching too much paw patrol...

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

That's pretty normal for every kid

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 hours ago

That's just a place mark. Wait'll they get older...
