[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 484109, member: 1514"] Well I am going to tell you something here that may or may not be popular, I do not know. I was told years ago when Cory was about your son's age to just let the swearing go because we had bigger fish to fry with his behavior issues. Yeah he got into some trouble with teachers but it really wasnt all that much. People just thought he must come from a home where we swear a lot. Not so. Well not that much then...lol. Now, I wouldnt have let it go knowing what I know now. He just got worse because he saw we didnt care so it must not have been important. Now, he can hardly have a conversation without every other word being a cuss word. He has lost jobs because he cant keep his mouth under control. He is attempting to not cuss in front of his kids but it is like trying to stop a flood with a wash cloth. I would hit this one head on and fast. I dont care if you have to use the swear jar or sticker charts or anything else but he has to learn that swearing is not okay for anyone...especially him. Teach him other better words for being aggravated. [/QUOTE]
