I am 63 years old, and have never heard fowl language out of my parents mouths.They are both gone now, but our children in turn, have not heard fowl language. When I hear it coming out of their mouths, it greives me terribly!!!!! The rule here" If you don't hear it at home, DON'T say it!!" Laura Inghram really came down on this today. GOOD FOR HER!!!!!!!

I believe that would be "foul" language...unless you're referring to speaking like a duck!

:o)

I think what it boils down to is respect. I would never want to disrespect her, and I wouldnt want my child to see me disrespecting her. I think what goes around comes around!!! Im glad Laura Inghram got into it today.

Neither did I or from any of my friends. My mother will be 101 on the 26th. None of the kids at school used that filth. It was a different time back then. We are about the same age so we must have had similar childhoods and we never watched filth on tv like the kids do today. Well, I hardly ever watched tv because I had rather be reading! I use to love to get a quilt and sit on the porch when it was raining and read.

Without fowl language, can I assume your family never ate fried chicken?
