Mommy and Daddy try never to "swear" in the presence of the kid...as a matter of fact, neither of us swears much at all. For some reason, however, the kid has picked up on a "nice, nasty" way to verbally let us know how he feels. Yep...as if he's swearing!
You be the judge...
When the kid has been disobedient, as he oftentimes is, Mommy and Daddy will raise our voices to stress the importance of obeying your parents; following directions and doing what you've been told. So instead of the kid acknowledging the scolding with a "yes ma'am" or a "yes sir"...he emphatically says "TOMATO SAUCE!"
Now...inquiring minds want to know...is it a coincidence that "TOMATO SAUCE" is appropriately stated where, perhaps, a "swear" word would likely fit? Or is this just a "nicer" way of his recognizing the error of his ways?
Hmmmmmm...
Don't be surprised if you meet the kid one day and he's missing part of his tongue! Because we aren't buying it!
