I rarely swear, and don't see why there are people who use swearwords as adjectives. When you hear little children swearing, it's worrying to think what future generations are going to be like. I think the reason is due to 1 or more of these 3 reasons.

1) Parents swear a lot, children pick it up
2) Children hear swearing to television and think it's cool and so pick it u
3) Children hear other children they know swearing, and pick it up from them.

It's like an endless loop of swearing and it's too late to stop it!

LoL perhaps if people would stop worrying so much about censoring and start worrying more about whether your kid is happy or not it wouldn't be such a problem =)

The worst part is that over using explatives only serves to devalue them. If you go around swearing all the time then when you actually are in a situation that warents using them you're left with powerless junk. It's language inflation. Taking a $5 bill and making it worth 5cents.

i think everyone has sworn. if not, those people are the ones who irritate me the most. just like the ones who don't drink. i just don't trust 'm! i swear, but only around those who don't mind. try NEVER to swear around children or others who find it offensive so i use my head when speaking. also, you will rarely see a letter capitolized when i post. gotta problem with that?!?!?!?

Swearing IS a big problem in children though not all children. The ones swearing usually come from a. a bad home or b. a rich family where they get what they please. Therefore I think that money makes people act like that. And TV... Kids may pick it up from their parents but I'm quite sure that their parents aren't forcing them to use it. It's all a decision for more power of people. If you make a big deal over it, they're getting what they want. A reaction and more power. I'm done.
