Exactly, I refuse to run around censoring shit, which is ultimately pointless the day they enter school anyways.

Instead I'll frame and explain things and instruct on the proper use (if applicable) when they come up, ya know being a parent lol. Censoring just teaches them to hide newly acquired knowledge if they feel my only response is going to be banning it/punishment IMO.

The only thing I might actually censor is like the worst of the worst...on a limited age based, case by case basis. I'm probably not going to let the 5 year old watch South Park for example, but if the 11 year old catches an episode or 2, meh.

Yeah definitely not "Cunt" or "Bitch", but "Fuck" and "Shit" are great 2nd grade vocab words

Don't know if you're being sarcastic but my friends and I were liberally using fuck and shit at that age.
