My Proudest Parenting Moment

“Fuck it,” my 4 year old mutters as the little people she is stacking fall like dominoes.

Horrified I ask, did you learn that at school?

No, she replies. From friends? The playground? TV? Daddy?
No, she says, from you.

I explain that that is a very bad thing to say and I need to stop as well.

Ok, Mommy, she says.
Can I just say fuck?

Shit.

Ha! This is awesome. Similarly, my toddler now says “stupid cat!” whenever he sees our kitty…

My stepson did the same thing when he was 4-at school! The tape player wasn’t working, so he nonchalontly said, “it’s just fucked up.” Needless to say, my husband was called in for an impromtu parent-teacher conference…..

my nephew once told someone his name was “jesus chris, kayman”

(his name really is kayman, just to be clear. the jesus christ was obviously thanks to my sister and having 4 kids under 6…)

I found your site after reading “Before I was a Mother….” on Yahoo, and i love your site and this one sounds like something my son and I will go through when he gets older. I’m a stay at home mom and my son will be 3 in June. He was eating lunch the other day and I dropped a glass and said shit…guess what my son said right after me….ha ha oops! : )

My 2 year old granddaughter thinks that saying “Oh Shit” is the cool thing to do these days. Her mother has taught her that this is a bad word but she still continues to blurt it out now and then. She says it, covers her mouth, and says “Oops, Anna say a bad word”.

I remember the swearing at a young age well! Such a shock and in the end, so funny!

Thanks for the follow! I’m glad I found your blog.

Too funny!!! My 5yo dd says things like, “daddy says…” Goes to show you that there are no secrets when you have a little one :) Fortunately we haven’t had this happen in public (knock on wood).

So glad I found your blog!

Nice to know it is not only my daughter. She likes to drop the F-Baomb in public- usually “Fucking People”. I have tried to ignore her when she uses it, told her not to say that word but no luck… let me know what works for you. It’s great having a potty mouthed 2 1/2 year old. (Douchebag was another one of her favorites & mommy’s)

obviously I am just now making it through all your posts!

My friend sent me a link to your blog, and I have to admit I have spent the past hour or so reading post after post, almost on the verge of tears. It feels good to know my 2 1/2 yr old isn’t the only one with the “potty- mouth” syndrome. My husband or I will ask him to pick up his toys or things of that nature and it is, more often than not, followed by an “Alright, damnit” or just a “damnit” accompanied with an angry look (you know the kind that burn a hole right through you).
