[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 47149, member: 1967"] Martie, I have corrected students that said "sucks" in my classroom only to be met with genuine surprise that I considered it inappropriate. It has become so commonplace in our society that I don't think the younger generation even considers it a cuss word. I think that the same thing has happened with "knocked up." It's become more of a slang term than it was in our generation. The times they are a'changing. . . doesn't mean I like it though. [img]:mad:[/img] ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
