Hi Ladies,

I empathise with you, it's just awful isn't it?

I tried Marydean's suggestion of using a funny word or phrase and at first she cracked up and this worked for about 2 days. Then she started saying it again.

I just ended up ignoring her completely because she'd say it and then look at me for a reaction.

I'm very happy to report that this seems to have worked and we haven't had any 'f' bombs dropped for about 2 weeks now. We did have a relapse of about a day but hasn't happened since.

So my experience has been - ignore it and be patient (and brave when in public! thankfully DD never said it in public) and eventually they'll forget about it and stop saying it. It might take a few weeks but nothing else worked for us.

Good luck!
