I have a child and several nieces and nephews, and I do not allow profanity toward me or others. It is very disrespectful and inappropriate for any child to use such language. Most children use it because they pick it up from TV or hear it on the street. My child is 16 months old and has used the s-word several times. She doesn’t know what it means, but heard it from my mother. I correct both of them each time – my child when she says it and my mom when she says it in front of children.

My sister allows her daughters to use all kinds of profanity because they think it is cute or funny, being so young. My niece Amanda gets called a bitch and ‘ho’ by her oldest son. He picked it up from music and other people. She laughs at him and calls him a bitch, and he is only 23 months. Then again, she is 19.

I hear children from all races talk this way toward their parents. You can’t direct your question directly to white people, because parents from other races allow it, too.
