I had tried to curtail my language and thought I was doing really well. I got cut off in traffic and uttered something like "RUUUGH!"; very frustrated, but no swearing. And Katie busts out with "damn shit crap fuck!". We told her that those words were only for grown-ups and that nice girls don't say things like that. We haven't had any more problems with her swearing since then.
