And it's not like a 5 year old has the context to understand what any of those words mean.

I’ve also never met a 5 year old tall enough to read the top shelves at stores. Children generally only have an interest/awareness of things on their own level unless they’re looking for something specific (and even then, they’re more likely to search low).

It’s so silly. I’ve said the word fuck in front of my kids who are four and six. At first they thought it was funny. I told them it’s not really an appropriate word to say at their age and it’s not something we say in certain places like school. Then we moved on from it. Now they don’t give a shit about saying it at all anymore. Removing the taboo fully takes away the allure of saying it.

When my sister was 5 she learned that people get their panties in a twist over the word fuck. She had zero idea what it meant but she loved the reaction it got, so she would sing it around people. Older women were her favourite as they would almost always react.

So, yes, I completely agree.

LMAO, little kids swearing is funny as shit. The fact that Chloe Moretz's mother made them leave in the scene where she calls people c*nts was as funny as anything on screen in Kick-Ass, and I really enjoyed that movie. 😆

That was my sister's other favourite word. Granted where I'm from it's not as rude as it is in the US, but still something people would gasp at.

Sometimes you have to work a little harder to offend, but it's always worth the effort. 😆
