Why People Swear or Cuss

Some time ago drove a School Bus.

The first three weeks of school the kids use to swear alot, girls as well as boys.

It was bad, I mean it actually hurt my ears, until one morning I stopped the bus.
Before saying anything, I said, "this is nothing personal to anyone of you" as I pointed my finger indiscriminately around the bus.

I asked,"Does anyone of you know why people swear..?". Only a couple answered, one said its because their Mad or Angry.
I said,"The Reason People Swear is because, they're [b]Ignorant and don't know how to express themselves"[/b]. The whole bus went silent as they say, "you could hear a pin drop".

The rest of the school year was bliss and rarely would I hear any cussing or swearing.

Life is Good!

That's exactly what I told my son when he started using such language. I said it was a shame for someone as intelligent as he is to sound ignorant. He is a good, well-spoken man now.

It's a habit and not everyone who swears is ignorant.
I rather hear a cuss word than the two women I work with crude descriptions of thier sex life...

The smartest most educated people also swear a LOT, they area also proudly lazy when possible and the idea is whoever has the EASIEST time pretending to be just like everyone else...

is actually the best.
very touching.
Us adults should also think about that.
Thank you !
