When you’re a kid, you have to be a little sneaky with what you say. When I was a wee lass, I had a huge potty mouth, and it took me a while to learn that there were some words you just couldn’t say in front of adults without consequences. I remember how unjust I thought it was that my mom could swear, but I couldn’t when I was 11 years old. Swearing seemed like the coolest thing in the world, and all I wanted to do was show the kids at school that I knew more bad words than they did. But alas, I was thwarted by the 6th-grade teaching staff at my school. After that, I learned the tricks of the swearing trade: less is more, and there are only a few adults you can reliably swear around. Some kids haven’t quite learned these lessons yet, and their teachers share their hilariously inappropriate vernacular on Reddit.
