Swearing Comes from School

[Squiglet]

I've realised that swearing comes from school... No matter how good you are with not swearing around your LO's, its of no use....the minute they start school... they will start swearing... I've come to this conclusion for the following reasons.

They are renovating the flat downstairs to us...which appears to consist of knocking down primary supporting walls and trying to break through our celing... LO is not a happy bunny at all the vibrations...and neither is my Pokemon loving 8 year old.... whos having her religious pokemon marathon interupted by the constant hammering and drilling.

My daughter has always attended Spanish school since she was 2 so speaks fluent Spanish, but we speak English at home. Now I swear... (more than I should) but only in English... Spanish swearing just doesn't sit right with me...

But my daughter, who never hears Spanish swearing at home, has just launched into a tirad of abuse concerning the f*ing b*grs downstairs making all that f*ing noise and not being able to hear her f*ing favourite program...what the F*ing hell do they think they are doing (roughly translated) cos it was all in Spanish... The air turned blue I just stared at her open mouthed

I'm not sure what to make of it really.... but at least it wasn't learnt from me!!

Unfortunately its true. My 5 year old has never heard swearing in the house either. But has said a few choice before now and told me who he heard them off too.
