How to Stop Your Kids Swearing “Experiments” 😥 + "Conscious Parenting through Triggers" Q&A with Sharmeen Bhanji-Abeysinghe
Hey there,
Summer of '89. That's when I started experimenting earnestly with swearing.
I was vacationing with my cousins. I was a country bumpkin and they were city slicks. I stuck out like a sore thumb because I didn't swear, while their conversations were liberally peppered with F-bombs!
My experimentation to be "cool" by swearing lasted for several years. By the time I graduated from college, I could out-swear the best of them.
(In case you are wondering, I don't swear anymore. At least not a lot 😃)
The point I'm trying to make is, most kids experiment with swearing at some point. Your kids will too.
At a certain age, in certain circles, it is the easiest way to be "cool". Of the many different options our kids can choose to try being "cool", this is probably one of the least destructive.
But it doesn't feel that way if your child drops the F-bomb at your family gathering, does it? So, what do you do? How do you handle these early "experiments" positively without shaming or embarrassing them?
Malinda has put together a wonderful article about this for us. I love this article because not only does Malinda offer us awesome, practical tips for handling this situation, she does so without getting all persnickety and prudish. Here, check it out -
