Hey well done getting to nearly 3yo!!! My DS of the same age said his first swear word nearly a year ago He picks up on what my frustrated 5yo sometimes says... mainly stemming from my 14yo DD and DH... strangely he doesn't mimic my occasional outburst... I don't use the "F" word... my swear word of choice is the occasional "S" word. But on the whole we aren't a swearing family. I actually put my foot down more about them saying OMG. DD used to say it quite a bit but lately she's calmed down a bit. 5yo still says it though to get a reaction and when my nearly 3yo hears him he now says "Don't say it! Gawd doesn't like it!!!" ROFL I hear that about 2-3 times a day.

I agree... largely ignore it... but if they start saying it in public you will have to explain that it's an ugly way to speak and that it's a bit like picking your nose; feels good but it's embarrassing to do in public. Well, that's what I tell my 5yo and it works for him! Likewise my 14yoDD.
