i think that honestly a word like crap isn't bad. It is the type of word that kids say so that they don't say the other word. When a child comes home to you and says crap don't go and bring out the soap....and don't go and give them time out.... instead try and talk it over with them. WOuld you rather have your child saying crap or the s word????? saying the word crap is the only thing that stops your child from saying the s word.
