and I think that I am getting hives in reaction to the antibiotics I got for the sinus infection the flu caused, and this is not good because it means I can not take sulpher antibiotics, Keflex OR penicillin so basically I am screwed

That seems like less sheltering and more the kid has overheard sentences like that and I'd definitely classify that as verbal abuse.But just using the C word ( since the kid does actually know what it means) is not a good sign at all. Plus it's ok to decide not to overprotect but a kid saying those sorts of words is in for a world of trouble at school and is likely to be labled as a problem kid. It's fine if you let your kid use whatever words you want at home, but it's a bad idea to let them think it's ok to say anywhere..
I'd say violent aggressive behavior in front of your kid is definitely abuse. It cause all kinds of emotional problems and psychological damage and I'd say teh F word is common usage enough that the kid could easily have picked it up in a myriad of situations but the C word is not one that gets said in movies or in public for the most part so he more than likely heard it at home and if he uses it in an aggressive context then that's likely the context he heard it in... hence my thinking that something else is going on. I'm all for people having the right to raise their kids the way they want, but if they'r going to expose their child to a lot of profanity and allow the kid to repeat it at school they're going to have to expect a lot of parent teacher conferences with the school psychologist ...
(O)_(O)....
wtF?
that...sounds like a huge parenting problem. first off them even saying stuff like that in front of the kid, and second them not drawing the line by telling them 'this is stuff you dont repeat ever' if something does slip out that the kid shouldnt hear. but yeah thats..thats pretty gorram bad if the kids obviously think its okay to say that kind of thing. and the fact that he knows what it means, which means its been explained to him (and it really shouldnt have been, not at age five or six) indicates some sort of issue on the parents' part as well. but thats just me ><

Fuck no.
Poor parenting is more likely.
But you start down the path where taboo or inappropriate words constitute abuse, and you're on a path I can't fucking abide.

I am with HK
fuck is just a word, so is C9nt
any word is bad if the intent is there, but saying that, little kids should not be using that word. I don't use it. I hate that word
It is not child abuse, if using bad language in front of your kids is, then call social services cause I talk like a sailor

OK thanks guys this helps me balance and realize it wasn't so much the language that bothered me but that the imagery the kid used and the abusive tone of it indicates one angry little munchkin... I think the big thing is say whatever you want at home just be sure your kid knows there's a time and place for that language and school isn't it....( well elementary school and probably junior high) You don't want your kid being the one who crosses the principal's doorway constantly and ends up labeled.
OK new ponder... weather change joy! It's snowing right now and I am little kid thrilled ( partly 'cause I already arranged the day off so I could totally clean) So my ponder is... how do you feel about the first snow of the season?
HUGS FMF and sends her virtual soup and tea
OK and in a side note... what exactly is the origin of the word cunt??

But but...don't you go outside and play in it??
I hate large quantities of it as it impairs my ability to wear cute clothes and shoes, but I do love it when the first snow swirls... NV started yelling when he got up and I came to see what the fuss was...yippee!!! snow :) time for sweaters and hot tea and toasted marshmellows and stews and homemade bread... snowmen and snowball fights and sledding, and definitely time to clean everything completely and then take a hot bath,put on some comfy sweats and curl up in my squashy chair with a book and some hot tea:)

HUGS HK..I do so adore you ...opinionated cunt:)

Is "glad that there isn't one" a fair answer? A great part of Austin is no snow! If I could convince my family to celebrate christmas down here I would. Stupid snow.
I can obviously survive snow. I can put up with it. I don't like it though. If I had my choice I'd probably never live in a snowy location.
