It started off innocently and as a joke but now everytime he sees my 3 year old, he tries to get them to say a cuss word. I told him to stop. He hasn’t. Brought it up to my partner- they say they grew up being taught curse words by their uncles and they don’t see what the problem is. I don’t want my kid getting in trouble at preschool and I dont want to be known as the parent whose kid says inappropriate words. I want to cuss at him for trying to get my kid to cuss. AITA?
P.S. I didn’t say what gender any of us are (save Uncle/BIL) and its funny to see how everyone sees it LOL!
NTA – Your brother and BIL need to grow up.
Totally inappropriate. He could offend a teacher or worse. And you’ll get complaints from the other children’s parents, because it will spread. There are plenty of fun things to do with a 3 y.o., FFS.
NTA. So your partner clearly just wants to be the fun weekend parent and not a responsible parent teaching their kid right from wrong, that will clearly be left to you. I refuse to let your son see his BIL anymore.
Why is a grown man so invested in teaching a 3 year old to swear. Weird energy. You’re fine. Set the boundary and stick to it.
