I always try to shield swear words from my family members because whenever my mom gets word (and she always does) that I'm around people who are cussing (includes music, TV, etc), she always thinks I'm doing it too and calls me out on it. She also said it's a bad influence, which I wholeheartedly understand, but jesus I'm 18 and I'm part time enrolled in public school.
Just the other day, my mom was driving me home and a Ram pulling a trailer stopped next to us at a stoplight. After the stoplight, the road converges from two lanes in one direction to one lane, so she decided to accelerate hard to make sure we wouldn't end up behind the guy. She slammed the gas, but so did the Ram driver. When he easily beat our 3 ton refrigerator to the reduction, my mom yelled, "What an a$$!" She then practically started groveling in remorse over saying such a bad word. I'm just sitting there thinking, "What does she think kids say at school??"
