Oh gawwwd beanie, dont you start on the "I am a terrible mother" bit... 
you are a super mum! Get used to it, she will pick up alllll sorts of lovely language...it's a losing battle 
I know we try to avoid using certain language in front of our darlin lil parrots, but it will happen occasionally, and they WILL pick up on it. Sod's law, I'm afraid. Hope she does forget it, but ...she will probably now use it constantly! Someone on here has a sig about children faithfully repeating everything you shouldnt have said. 
so true.

..... i know i shouldn't laugh, but why is it that they always seem to pick up on the swear words everytime.I can always remember taking harrison to the park when he was little and he ran in dog poo, he then insisted on shouting across the field " It's dog shit mummy, dirty dog shit"
Everyone on there turned round and looked at me while i tried my hardest not to laugh and keep my face straight.
Its really not your fault, its something kids do and if you ignore her when she says it she's proberly going to forget about the word right away.
We got a swear pot about 4 weeks ago as I was convinced Dan said fook! 
He hardly says a word but I was convinced! It really has worked. You have to put the money in straight away or it won't work. It really has made me think about want I am saying. Also when people come round they must stick to it too. We are going to use the money for Dans swimming lessons. Made about £30 so far! 
(mainly from me!)

hehe, I remember last winter Seren went to the car with OH, and a minute later they were standing on the doorstep soaking wet. OH was going "f'ing car door won't open, f'ing car, f'ing door, f'ing rain" and I said to Seren, "ooh why are you all wet" to which she replied "its f'ing raining mummy". I didn't know whether to be ashamed of her language or impressed by her grammer lol.
Am so pleased its not just me

I rememeber when George was about 4 or 5 and we were in the car and some boys kicked a football and it headed towards our car and he said 'Fucking hell i thought that was going to hit us'.
I nearly crashed the car at what he said

I think I am going to refrain from commenting on how much of a bad mother I am .. But considering Tia has mastered the intricacies of swearing in English and in the correct grammatical and situational uses, I think there might be some connection
Saying that she also swears beautifully in Spanish and we don't use Spanish swear words in our house... The term "cojones" just doesn't seem to fit correctly in my mouth in comparison to boll*x.... so where did she learn this... School...
I just ignore it... I can't really tell her off because I do it... I just remind her if we are in polite company she has to watch her swearing... and she's really good... the time she does swear she does it under her breath and never just because.... Last time we were in polite company, she spilt hot tea in her lap and whispered "sh*t that was hot" under her breath... well I had to give her that one...

Oh dear I nearly spilt my own tea reading taht !!! Yep, you're a fucking shit mother.
Sorry, I mean..................
You're a foofing poopoo mother.
Stanley's favourite word (inexplicably) at the moment seems to be fork. Or perhaps it's only memorable because he can't get his mouth round the long vowel sound and shouts fuck at the dinner table

A few days ago my mam asked Lydia if she was tired, and she replied "No, I'm not tired, I already had my p*ssing big sleep."
The ground could have swallowed me up.
