I was always very liberal with language around Danielle and John in their informative years. Both remember me reading to them at bedtime the same old books over and over, every night, but for fun I would insert some curse words. It was stuff like, Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water. Jack fell down and broke his crown and Jill said what the hells wrong with you, get up off your clumsy-ass and go get some more water. Asshole! The humour is all in the delivery, reading the rhyme like a song until Jill starts to get angry. It made our time together fun, more fun then when mommy read the books to them. Mommy wasn’t thrilled with the language but in a way that made it even more fun. Go figure I’m divorced. Anyway, the general rule of thumb was that they could curse if what they were saying made me smile or if they happen to hurt themselves. I was responsible enough to tell them there is a time and a place for everything. If we’re at Grandma’s for dinner you don’t ask her to pass the fucking peas. There was this one time when Danielle was at the schoolyard, standing on top of the dumpster, screaming obscenities at someone when Sherry happen to come around the corner of the school. Boy did I hear about that for a while. Personally, I feel a word is just a noise to describe a person, place or thing, even if it is a curse word. Didn’t we all learn that simple lesson in English 101? Why are some people so offended by the C word but patty-cake is used to describe the exact same thing? Oh! patty-cake, ohhhh. I’m all for calling a cunt a cunt. And I have, in front of my kids. I guess I didn’t follow my own rule about a time and place for everything. I know now that wasn’t the right time. For the most part I think my kids have grown to be somewhat normal. If not, fuck them the cunt deserved it!!

Are you smiling?
