February 2014 Moms

Did we discuss the mom who was arrested for saying the F word?

I don't recall that we did. It's kind of old news now, but I'm wondering what you think about it.

Here's an article, if you don't know about this story. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/08/15/newser-mom-arrested-swearing-in-front-of-kids/14102633/

  • I don't known if I've said the f word at the grocery when LO has been there. Is there a difference between the f word and another swear? How about saying Jesus or Christ or God?

    I thought the same thing but the incident report that was linked to one of the articles tells basically the same story.  She doesn't exactly seem like MOTY but I'm not sure how her actions can be considered "disorderly conduct."  I've seen worse in our grocery store. 

    She's clearly not winning any parenting awards but why on earth is our knee-jerk reaction to arrest someone? Like, really, what positive thing will come out of that? This kind of crap is why people don't like the police, nevermind the busybody who called them. Because really, this was so not necessary.
