Sometimes there is a good reason to let your kid swear

Parenting is a difficult job. It seems like everyone has an opinion on everything that you can possibly do as a parent, even if it’s something you don’t do — and especially if it’s none of their business. There’s some things that most parents seem to agree on, though, and that’s to not let your child swear — but, as this article states, “Sometimes there is a good reason to let your kid swear”, and it backs it up with surprising evidence.

Key Takeaways:

  • Yesterday morning, it was raining a monsoon, and I was working from home anyway due to an appointment later in the day
  • It would have been great if my daughter, Anna, had gotten her act together, but she’s fifteen.
  • Despite my yelling repeatedly from the foot of the stairs, we left nearly 15 minutes later than I wanted to, which in turn, made both her and her brother late to school.
