Children's Mouths Shouldn't Say

Me: How was your day at summer camp?

Naomi: Not so good.

Me: Really? How come?

Naomi: Alex said a bad word today.

Me: I'm sorry that happened.

Naomi: Yep, he said that bad word children’s mouths shouldn’t say. (She leans in to me here, looks around, and lowers her voice) You know, the s-h- word

Me: Oh, that’s too bad.

Naomi: Yeah, *sigh* he said shut-up. It was too bad.

Me: Yeah, *sigh* too bad.
