I would have never dreamed of doing such!
-
No, but I did tell them that I hoped they got eaten by sharks.
-
Just three letter words, mom and dad... :)
-
When I was three, my mom wouldn't let me get fruit loops cereal. (I remember how anal she always was about the cereal she wouldn't let me get and the hissy-fits i'd throw over them) I put my hands on my hips, leaned foward and called her the dreaded "b word" I know that's five letters.. but that's the biggest word I ever called my parents :]
-
Frank, if I did, I would no longer be around.

Well I'm feeling like a bad daughter, I can't believe all the negative responses... The only time I remember it was more like a 7 letter word (ending in -hole). My mom looked offended for a second and then she reached for the closest item. I think that was the time the wooden hanger broke right across my deserving tush.
-
Yep I called my mom a noob, she just kinda looked at me weird and sent me to a see a counselor.
-
In the 38 years I've been alive, I've never even cursed at my parents out of anger. Now, I curse at the drop of a hat, but not to them but if something pisses me off or I bang my toe or something.

when my daughter was 4,we were all in the yard and suddenly she jumped up and screamed "S@#T",my wife ran over "What did you say?" "Mama you d say S@#T too if a damn yellow jacket stung you!!!"
-
when I was really young I apparently said "who the hell cares" which sent my then elderly grandparents into shock...this was in about 1953
-
whenever I USED a four letter word, I got my mouth washed out with soap. that didn't happen too many times....soap is pretty nasty! I never called my parents any 4 letter words when I was a kid. But! I do remember when we were really young, my younger brother repeated one of those words (dont' recall which) and my mom actually said..."Quit your damn cussing!"
-
I called my stepmother a bitch. She made me look up the word in the dictionary and write a paper on why she was not one, while holding a bar of soap in my mouth. Then I had to read it out loud to her.
-
Unfortunately I did... and then couldn't sit down for a while. :(
-
I used to call my father a SOB, asshole, bitch. He didn't like it much.
-
I CALLED MY MOM A BUNCH OF BAD LETTER WORDS NOT JUST 4 LETTER WORDS I DID IT TIME AFTER TIME AFTER TIME WHEN SHE DID NOTHING PROBABLY WHY I KEPT DOING IT UNTIL ONE DAY SHE BEAT HTE HELL OUT OF ME THAT WAS 20 YEARS AGO I HAVENT SAID ANYTHING BUT NICE THINGS EVER SINCE AND I RESPECT HER ALOT MORE.
-
Are you kidding? I didn't have a death wish. I do remember one time I had a friend over and she said the word "butt" in front of my dad. I thought I she and I was both gonna die! But he didn't say a word! Phew!
-
My Dad just laughed at me! That made me grow up!
-
many times. who do you think i learned it from.
-
I screamed at my dad once, I was all like, f***k you!! He wasn't happy at all, and I never did it again. >_>
-
Are you kidding me I never... I mean NEVER said a cuss word in frount of my mom until I was 20 years old!
-
Oh Hell no. My father would have knocked me through a wall.

we (all 7 of us) never called any person ,young or old , 4,5,6,7,or 8, letter words ,nor used them in an adults presence....its called "having respect"....mam and sir....we valued our teeth and had no desire to be picking ourself up off the ground....we were loved,and both my parents would nip "bad behavior" in the bud.... 'a child without respect is uncivilized'...but my mom and dad always said, "u never want to raise a child that people hate to see coming, that would be ur fault" ....i remember and used the same .....i have no respect for a spoiled brat or their parent...its unnecessary and irresponsible and definitely not cute when u got an 8,9,10 yr. old screaming "i hate your guts" in the store......and u definitely "reap what YOU sow" when there 14 to 18 and they have no respect....u didn't earn it .... i had a friend , she was in the bathroom, passed gas, made the remark ,to herself, "ohhh, that smells like green peas" .her dad burst in that door,pinned her to the wall...and said, " you will watch that mouth , young lady"....we laughed..at this...he was a great dad .......thatsJustme:)

I had a healthy fear of my parents as a child. I had bad thoughts at times, but would never, NEVER would have spoken them.
-
I was carefully brought up and didn't know any; but even if I had known them I should never have felt the desire to use them towards my parents.
-
Heavens no!! We were taught to respect our parents. The only four-letter words I knew weren't even curse words. When our parents made us mad we kept our mouths closed.
-
For a while I called my father Josh.
-
Having been carefully brought up I didn't know any obscene four-letter words until I was about 14---Ain't education grand?---and by that time I was old enough to understand the significance of using them. So naturally I should never have dared to use such words towards my parents. Besides, irritating as they were from time to time, I loved them too much to even imagine doing so.
-
No, I'd have gotten battered if I had. I swear, but even as an adult I have never sworn in front of my parents.
