1. Wacky Wednesday: Recovering From a Potty Mouth Moment

Evenflo has just released the Momentum 65 DLX Convertible Car Seat, with features that help make safety, installation and use as easy as possible for parents. Evenflo and JuiceBox Jungle sponsored me to write this post.

They asked us to view a video, which you can also watch here. In the video, a mother has a potty mouth, and the child, of course, repeats after the mother. :) Then, the parents try to recover from the potty mouth moment. I find the video absolutely hysterical–from the mother and her mouth to the cute baby to the father who looks a little in shock about everything. I mean, let’s be realistic, whether we use language as “bad” as the mom in the video or we say something like “stupid”, we all say things we don’t want our children to repeat. Currently, every time my stepson hears us say, “STUPID,” he says, “Oh, you said a bad word!” So, he definitely keeps our potty mouths on track.

However, he did have an incident with his mom, which is pretty funny. When he was in 3rd grade, some girls were teasing him in the hall (because they liked him:). And he turned to his mom and said, “Those girls really p*ss me off!” Obviously, he didn’t think it was a bad word, or he wouldn’t have said it to his mom, and obviously, he had heard it enough in the right context from adults. So, potty mouth incidents happen–let’s not beat ourselves up over them!

My husband and I do the best we can to monitor what my stepson watches, reads, hears, and sees. We try to talk only about “appropriate” subjects in front of him, and we will do the same with the baby due in December. But again, nobody’s perfect! I found the book below on Amazon.com if anyone is interested. LOL!
