I am sick of my dad telling me how to parent and what I choose for my children is wrong. Yesterday Aidan said bugger while my dad was there. I told Aidan I didn't want him saying that word as it can be seen as not very nice. My dad then pipes up and says "Oh it has different meanings" I get that but most of the time it is seen as an offensive term and I don't want my child saying it. He then proceeded to message me a definition of bugger and said it's fine to use it depending in what context. I then proceeded to say that it Aidan doesn't really understand that he has to use it in certain contexts for it not to be offensive therefore I will not allow him to say it. He replied with this
How ridiculous, it isn't offensive and I don't give a damn what other people say. It isn't offensive and I am not going to live my life according to the belief of idiots.
I am sick to death of him trying to undermine me as a parent. Am I in the wrong? Should I just accept it and say that Aidan can say it? Fuming tbh x
