I have made an effort not to curse for the last 5 years. I know times have changed and cursing is more acceptable. It kind of shocked me when I heard my 16 year old nephew(he is 21 now) say the F word. I told myself then I don't want to curse, especially around kids. So far, I have been doing pretty good...once in a while I will "slip"....
Well I try not to cuss around kids. I am so subtle when I cuss, that people (including the kids I have slipped around) are not bothered by it or even notice it. Now, when I go into a public place, if I have to speak loud, I will not cuss. Nor would I cuss when speaking to an employee in a place of business unless we are talking about personal life (it happens as you make friends with people) where I feel comfortable to be myself.
I hate when people just blurt them out all loud and say to people in a department store "Ay! Where um..... Where the F*ck is your diapers an shit?" See? We have a problem there. That's just wrong.
