03/14 Dr. Phil Now: Fly Girls
Quote From: eileen60 As a teacher, I do not understand why there would be ANY cussing taking place in a school. "The teachers don't mind as long as it's not said to them or another student"?????? Have I missed something??? Curse words are not just used to vent frustration or anger , as implied by the young man and Dr. Phil. They are used as adjectives, adverbs and verbs as well as for showing joy, sorrow , and pain. I know their use is widespread among the 40 and below age group but I have never been able to understand the attraction. Whenever I hear the "language" being used in conversation, I lose a lot of respect for the person using it. I guess I'm just old-fashioned. I wonder if I will lose my sense of time progression when I get old...
You see, to younger people swearing isn't this horrible or daring thing, they are just words. I hope I remember this later in life.
