He is also starting to call people "Idiot" when he is mad because of his darling sister. <br/><br/>I have been trying SO HARD to clean up my language around them, but its frustrating since almost anything sassy that I say in place of actual swear words still sounds horrible coming from a 2 or 6 year old.<br/><br/>But like you said, at least its not the F-Word. When my daughter was about 3 years old, she heard me say something like "where are my F*&%ing shoes" and then would refer to ANY shoes as "f*&%ing shoes"....I'd tell her to go put on her shoes and she'd come back to me all sweet and innocent, saying "I put my f*&%ing shoes on Mommy". Ugh. The worst part was how long it took her to stop saying it. <br/><br/>So all things considered, I am doing a better job with my son, since the worst he has uttered is "Damn it" and I'm already all over him about that. lol My 2 year old is starting to say "Oh crap" and "Damn it" because of me.

Although I knew that your SIL was a b!#&h, I guess I tend to hone in on the wardrobe description and immediately assign the guilt to the MIL, since mine is the one with the tacky, bejeweled clothing.<br/><br/>For the record, I got lucky at least with my SIL; she's wonderful, and on the same page as those of us who wee her parents for what they are.

And I love the animal print sister. I’m sure it’s not at all tacky.
