A matter of class? How so? As a Child Free person who grew up swearing, I don’t get the reason why we give 2 fucks if kids use the full English language. It’s moronic to pretend that they won’t swear, and you would be hard pressed to find an adult who never does, so what’s the point of sheltering the little air breathers from it?

Worth noting studies have shown that people who swear are both statistically more intelligent, and happier than those who don’t. So why do you want to raise unhappy idiots?

Sounds like your mind is made up, I’m not interested in changing it. I will say that children will be exposed to many things, but there are still quite a few thing I won’t discuss or expose them to personally. Children reading that stuff was a silly little detail I added, which I apparently shouldn’t have as it’s derailed the discussion.

As someone who swears like a sailor at times, I had never bothered to look this up. Now that I have I will bust out the various studies when people tell me to watch my language.
