When me and my brother were little our parents TRY they're best NOT to swear infrount of us cause you know how kids are they'll repeat everything you say so instead of swearing they would spell out the swearing word say for instances if they wanted to say DAMN they would say D A M N!!!! And me and my brother would be so confused til we started to learn to read and spell cause then when our parents would spell out a swearing word we would say "DAD DON'T YOU MEAN SHIT INSTEAD OF S H I T"?
