Not sure whether this should be in this section or Secondary section or Am I being Unreasonable section! So I apologise now if I'm wrong!
So here goes -
DD is in Year 9 and in English she is studying the book "STONE COLD". Now I do not know anything about this book apart from what is written in her English exercise book. Teacher apparantly asked them to write all the slang words from the text in this book, she wrote things like bastard and arse were among a few more other choice words.
Now what I'm thinking is - I know in a perfect world DD will not hear these words, but as a responsible mother, I and my DH have do not use words like these, so am I being unreasonable not to want my DD who is 13yr not to be writing such words down!
When I spoke to DH about it, he didnt seem that surprised, and said that he had studied books similar to that whilst he was at Secondary School.
All I can say that is - I must have led a very reserved life, to which my answer is I'm glad!

Does anyone else think that the work my DD is doing at school is a bit close to the mark!
