From the mouths of babes

Ever notice how your kids can show you how wrong you are without any judgement? You can feel like a total horse's rear end just from their completely innocent observations. Example: We were driving the other day and a guy completely cut me off and I had to practically stand on the breaks in order to avoid a wreck. Before I had a chance to even analyze the situation, my boy says, "Dad, is that guy a product used for feminine hygiene?" Except, he actually used the real word. This has really bothered me since it happened. I really need to start being careful of the things I say.

My daughter(13) dropped the S bomb this weekend having BBQ w the neighbors.
Fortunately for me, she had the exact same delivery and nuance and timing my wife has.

I don't even know what to say. You let stuff slip like that sometimes when your scared or mad and it really doesn't seem like anything. Then you hear it out of an innocent mouth and you realize just how wrong it really is.

Haha I have been saying the same thing the past few weeks after I lovingly called my hubby the "b word" (other people do this right? Lol) and my son did his best to repeat it

definitely glad you were able to stop in time! Oh and the other day while I was rushing to get ready so just changed my pants in the hallway, instead of walking up to the bedroom to do it, and that little stinker pointed at my pasty legs and said "ewwww". Now that's a real confidence booster hahaha.

LoL, I can imagine. However, I am not sure what you spit out that means "product used for feminine hygiene"; English is my second language and I only know a handful of bad words

Can't post it on here. It gets filtered out.

Happens to all of us. I had a craigslist guy come to get coral. Without thinking about it, I cleaned the house all morning. 10 mins after he arrived this happened.
Jake: who's he?
Me: a guy buying coral
Jake: is that why you swept?

Me: yes it is

My guess is hes referring to a type of female "body wash". Lol filters are for the best. I love this site!

Lol, dont sweat it. Kids put us on an even longer learning journey than we realize.
FWIW when my kid dropped the bomb, it was not profane. her timing was perfect, her delivery was dead on and her comedic timing was impeccable.
she floored the room and got the biggest laugh of the night.
So yea, she used a dirty word, but I guess we taught her how to use it the right way.

It's a word used to insult people that is also a product some women use for cleaning a specific area of the body if that helps. If you watch south park they had an episode where one of the potential school mascots were one of these and the other was a sandwhich lol. have no idea how that became a word to use as an insult. But it does roll off the tongue quite nicely when someone cuts you off while driving lol.

I believe a brand name is Summer's Eve Feminine Wash. There is a slang term used to describe that here in the U.S.
