My husband and I both have issues with the "words" we choose to say in front of our daughter, and we have been trying to correct that. But, it is so true, you're right, it is up to us to "parent" our child and teach her right from wrong. I love it when you said, "Eliminating foul language from the world to protect our youth is no more the answer than is burning books to shield them from inappropriate thoughts." That is so true, because if they aren't taught right from wrong at home, eventually they will experience these things out in the world and won't know what to do. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing!

As they got older, they needed to be reminded of this as they listened to violent hiphop music etc. It's amazing how just the thought of "the crap you listen to, influences how you are" makes them pause and turn it off. But they are doing it themselves, by choice. (or not...teehee)<br /><br />Please stumble me, I stumbled you. Thanks for participating in Stumble Tumble Tuesday.

I'm a real prude when it comes to foul language. I hate that everyday cartoons contain things I don't want my kids syaing, but like you said, it's up to me to teach them otherwise. We simply don't watch shows that contain language I don't want them saying.Adriennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13528968129655668573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1231715681600976354.post-32894505832076600172011-04-20T13:30:54.297-04:002011-04-20T13:30:54.297-04:00I agree with you totally.

I tolerate some moderate and very occasional cussing from my older kids, because I think it is reasonable to expect that. <br />I would be very dismayed though if I ever heard them talkingl ike sailors when I wasn't around. <br />I do wish the networks would show a little "family friendly" shows until 8:30 or so. I get tired of watching Idol and Top Chef from time to time.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10517747321455561159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1231715681600976354.post-90924947583886948992011-04-20T12:44:03.262-04:002011-04-20T12:44:03.262-04:00It really is up to us to teach our kids.

But, my kids are in bed before those shows are on.Shellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06811697675090627618noreply@blogger.com
