I meant I don't think I swear regularly, but I do swear

So what you are saying is you swear, but not all the time?

 

[Bopper]

right right. The breakdown in US schools is: Elementary Schools=5-10 Middle School=11-13 High School=14-17. . . I think you could add another: Pre University for which are AP classes for which they can earn both high school and college credits. Though its not required.

We have college at sixteen+ and then uni at 18+, but they’re not mandatory. Because we have no middle school, in the change between primary school and high school (despite there only being a six week gap between the change) we learn and learn fast once we get into high school

Probably around the age of 10.... My eldest daughter must've inherited that habit from me. Because she has also been comfortable with swearing since a similar age

Obviously never in front of adults or my parents until I was 17.

@Bopper I know it was common for my family to use buggar regularly because we heard it from my grandma who was raised in England. but is that considered a mild swear there?

Yeah bugger is a word that is as close as you can get to cursing on television (pre-watershed) without actually cursing. It’s in a similar area to ‘bloody hell’

Yeah. Dirty Bugger was a regular occurance among my family, but since we live in US it didn't have the same effect.. Even Bloody Hell wouldn't cause alarm here.. However, Fuckin Aye would. lmao

 

[Mangoey]

Maybe 15 or 16? I feel like I still don't swear much verbally, but I swear a lot when I think/talk to myself in my head lol

 

[lexus]

I don't remember the exact age, but I think it was close to the beginning of my adulthood. I do it more in my head than I do out loud
