I feel dreadful aout this but my 2.5yo has picked up the f word from me. I don't use it regularly but she's had chickenpox and mOnday Tuesday was feeling much better but was very trying, demanding and cheeky. I've never sworn at her but must admit to muttering it under my breath over the last couple of days genereally ffs. Well, she's now reciting it perfectly and DP is horrified. I don't need anyone to make me feel bad about it as I can do that by myself. DP has reprimanded her quite severely twice over it. I wonder if it's best to ignore it until it goes away. She does know it's naughty as she say;s it whilst looking at you grinning. Also it's when she gets a bit over excited......Unfortuantely MIL was here today and heard it very clearly.
So I am I the only one? Any ideas on how to deal with it?
