I have to agree with you. Little kids did not swear, parents could, but many didn't inside the house. And even then, my dad had only a few favorites when the hammer hit his thumb or he bumped his head.
I remember when conservative Bill Cosby, of all people, told the story about how his father used to call him and his little brother Russell, home. Bill's father didn't call him, Bill. And Bill’s mother was always “sick and tired”. It's a classic and might even be 50 years old. That was edgy back then.
