No wonder you're going to be road-tripping with him. It must be a laugh a minute. :-) Karrie - I can only aspire to have my kids aspire to the level of Max’s, uh, vocabulary.

Mine like to use it occasionally cause Daddy NEVER watches his mouth. Although mofo coming from a 3 year old is funny... ah yes, the F-Bomb.

My kids have always accepted that there are things for kids and things for adults--even words. Mark knows there are 'bad' words and 'grown up' words--and he'll chastise his older brothers if he hears them using them. They have such a strong sense of justice at that age. I don't think my older guys swear excessively. I don't really need to police them anymore. Well, in any case, they've learned not to do it around mom, so they've learned there is a right time and a wrong time, right? WTU?

So it's no surprise that he doesn't say it if I tell him not to. Not that he doesn't misbehave sometimes (often). Alyssa is much more defiant and will challenge everything including swearing (even Spanish swear words) Once a week story - hilarious! Ian is very much my people-pleaser.

Once a week story - hilarious!
