Trouble

Zander: "Mom, I want to draw."

Danielle: "Okay buddy, get out your paper and crayons."

Zander: "Actually, I want to cut paper."

Danielle: "Okay, then get your paper and scissors."

Zander: (while digging in the junk drawer) "I already got the paper.....now, where are those f*$kin scissors.......?"

Danielle: "Excuse me sir, what did you just say?!?"

Zander: (with the "deer in headlights" look) "I'm just looking for the f*$kin scissors?"

Danielle: (as sternly as possible while trying not to smile) "Zander Palm, this is the only time I'm going to warn you, that word you just said is a hot sauce word. I will not give you hot sauce this time, but if I ever hear you say it again, you will get hot sauce in your mouth."

Zander: "You mean the word 'f*$kin,' Mom?

Danielle: "Yes son, that is a very very naughty word and I don't ever want to hear you say it again."

Zander: "Okay Mom."

(few minutes later while he diligently cuts his paper)

Zander: "Mom, is 'stupid' a bad word?"

Danielle: "Well, no, it's not a BAD word, you won't get hot sauce for it, but it wouldn't be nice if you called someone 'stupid,' okay?

Zander: "Okay. Soooooo, 'f*$kin' is a hot sauce word, but 'stupid' ISN'T a hot sauce word, and 's%#t' isn't a hot sauce word either, right?"
