wat do u do when ur 2 year old starts to say the F-BOMB??

Answer 1

find your mom so she can beat you then you can beat your child because apparently she heard it from you or someone that you have her around

Answer 2

I have been lucky and my 2 year old daughter has not droped the f-bomb yet. I did make a mistake not long ago and accidentally introduced her to the wonderful expression "Pain in the A$$". I decided not to make a big deal out of it and just pay extra attention to the words I use. I just told my husband the other day that she has not said the wonderful expression for a while now and hope she has forgot it. How can you really punish a 2 year old for saying something they don't understand? Just do your best to watch your language as kids that age are just little parrots that repeat everything you say.

Answer 3

Ok, he is hearing that from someone.... make sure that person knows that they should stop immediately. The next time the 2 year old says the word tell him that is not a word that you like and he can say oops instead. If he says the forbidden word again (and he will since at 2 shocking someone is very, very cool) ignore it. The less payoff he gets from the word the less important it will become. Just be sure you say oops (or something you do not mind hearing him say in public) at the appropriate time (like when you drop a can of soup on your foot).

Good luck.

Answer 4

First, don't over react. Kids LOOOVE reactions. He/She will continue to drop the F-bomb because making mommy crazy is funny. Next, get down on eye-level with your child and very calmly explain that the "F" word is a very bad word and shouldn't be said ever again. At 2, while they have a concept of right and wrong, it's really based on your reaction. He/She has no basis for understanding as to WHY that is a bad word, only that Mommy gets really upset when it's said. And like I said earlier, seeing an over-the-top reaction is funny to them. They like to push our buttons as parents.

I don't however recommend "popping" a child of 2, no matter how lightly, because that is only going to set you up for failure later on with hitting his/her peers, you, the dog, etc. If you hit him/her, than it must be ok for him/her to hit others to express frustration, anger, etc.

I guarantee you that the less reaction he/she gets out of you, the quicker that behavior stops. Especially when he/she learns a new word. Try teaching (when you are correcting him/her) a word to say instead of the f-bomb.

And absolutely correct any adults that are around you that use foul language. I would reserve the "popping" in the mouth for them if they don't know enough to watch their language in front of children.

Answer 5

Tell the 2 year old that is a bad word.
You must not ever say that word or you will get spanked (punished) whatever punishment you use.
Then do NOT repeat the word or let people say that word around the 2 year old.

I had this happen, the daycare director pulled me into the office about what slipped from my child's mouth. He didn't say it anymore.

Answer 6

I agree with ravensand, kids learn so much from us parents. It's so important that we set a good example for them, we have to be careful with what we say and how we act around our children. My children are in school and they come home sometimes saying words that we do not use in this house or anywhere else for that matter, but we don't make a huge deal out of it we just tell them that it's not a nice word or it's not in the dictionary....it works.

Answer 7

Ignore it. Kids love power words. If a word makes a grownup spit purple chips, it's a power word.
Tell them in a bored voice that that's a boring word, and don't say it again. Punishing them for it just makes the word more interesting. Don't swear in front of your kids. That's all. It doesn't take long, so long as the kid isn't hearing the word anywhere.

Answer 8

Actually the best thing to do is to ignore him...don't laugh, giggle, or snicker. Don't yell, scream, or get angry. Simply tell him that that is not a nice word and go on about your business, if he thinks he'll get a rise out of you whenever he says it, he'll keep using it.

Secondly stop saying it around him and tell others to please watch their language around your child. Kids imitate adults and if they see and hear you et al using the "f" word to express displeasure or whatever, they'll use it too.

Answer 9

you mean f__k?? Its time to make sure everyone in your household (if you have control in your particular household) to start watching their language. And, its time for the child to start to learn what is appropriate and what is not. But you can't reprimand a child when your household is all doing it. Children mimick the parents, and those around him. If you do not have control over your household, its now time you did. You obviously have the common sense to know whats right and wrong.

Answer 10

my son came home after a weekend at the dads and when he came in side he said the word, my son dad said he was sorry about that because he hurt him self and said it in front of our son ( as he thought our boy was in side and not in the shed with him till he repeted it) what i did was pick up my son and took him to he dad ask he dad to put he hand out and i gave he dad a smack on the hand and then told my son if i hear that word from you again i do the same thing to you as i did to dad that was 6 mth ago and he has not said it again since and he dad to worried for what i do next so he always care full around our son

Answer 11

You trace the source down to where it was learned from and put a boot square where the sun doesn't shine. Then correct the child if they continue to say it until they quit..... PLUS repeat the first step any time you hear the person who said it in the first place.
