Language is just words I think. There are words I don't like because of the motivation behind the words but in general - eh. Though I appreciate that my voice doesn't sound that way and I used to almost never swear. Monkey-boy has had a very bad influence on that.
I remember once when I was teaching - a class of 15/16 year olds who were considered by the school to be so problematic they had put them ALL in the same class to prevent them from disrupting other classes and called them 'the cess pit' - and I had drawn the 'short straw'. I adored those kids and we had a good relationship, so when I had a lesson observation they tried really hard to behave well and make me look good. So I have a lesson observation going on with someone from the local authority (and I am HATING this obviously because who wants to be watched) and we are reading a poem about vultures that is on the exam syllabus. It's all about vultures picking at a corpse - eating the entrails, plucking the eyes, whatever. So I read it out loud and then ask "so, what have we learned about the vultures". A child whose nickname is genuinely 'Brickhead' raises a hand. And I am thinking holy crap - hand raising? They really ARE on good behavior. So I'm feeling confident when I say "Chris, go ahead..." and he REALLY thinks he's trying to be helpful and good by answering a question... and he says...
"That they're FUCKING dirty c*nts, miss"
And of course I laugh until I cry. Which probably isn't what the observer from the local authority thought I should be doing in that situation.... :/
