    Hi Kingston Mom!
    I don't consider it to be in the bad word circle but I know many people do find it offensive, so during day home hours "oh my gosh" bombs are the order of the day around here.

    It does raise an interesting debate for sure. In our home, it is not said. My 7 year old will, the rare time say it instead of 'Oh my Gosh' and he is corrected immediately. Now, if he ever let a swear word slip it would be an entirely more severe reaction than simply an immediate correction/reminder. Now, when he does the odd slip to OMG, would I write a note to his teacher...absolutely not. I definitely think Mom has overreacted here.
    Children are great imitators.
    So give them something great to imitate.

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
