Well, that's about the only sign clean enough to post. No f-bombs, no pictures of anatomy, no bird flips--that's a precious one for sure.

I'm shocked at the parents who exposed their children to all that profanity and obscenity.

Have read that there were no arrests in the DC march. Apparently the story is that many of the signs in the DC march were placed specifically there (I forget where now) in an attempt to continue their statement. I don't know if organizers will come back tomorrow to clean up. A friend said that in Portland it was clean-- all they found after the march was a lone little abandoned coffee cup.

What amazed me was that there were marches on ALL 7 continents... yep including Antarctica- a small 'march' on a boat lol.

Many people cussed in front of children in public, unfortunately.

Without protest, your child will likely to learn when they overhear in the public like restaurants, fast food, mall and shopping centers, it is common nowadays, even my families cuss at me when next table was little girl, but I told shh to my families.

Oh well, important, tell to children - never say like those words at home and school, that's parent's job.

I would never intentionally take my child to a place where I know there will be screaming vulgar language and dirty pictures and costumes. I wouldn't purposely take them to an event where speeches included shrieking f-bombs, crass descriptions of feminine hygiene products, the p-word used in a crude way, disparaging words about someone's appearance, and bragging about being nasty. There were signs all over the place (not just a few) with all kinds of profanity on them and obscene pictures. There were people dressed in costumes that were supposed to be giant vaginas. The kids were exposed to that all day long.

That was not some random accidental cuss word being overheard. That was constant in-your-face assault.

It could happen when strangers dispute with others in random times - it is just not expected.

That's parent's decision to take their children to march. :dunno:

That's what I'm saying. Why on earth did parents take their kids to such an event? They knew there was going to be nastiness happening.

If adults want to protest and attend that's fine. But why drag your kids into it?

Not all marches are nasty, some are good, some are bad.

If happen, it is best to keep out of sight.
 
I would want my daughters to know their Lady parts are not a bad thing but hey I walk around naked at home and cuss in front of my kids. They don't repeat my words because they are mommy words. I treat my kids as if they are adults because one day they will be. So at 3 and 4 they know where babies come from, that milk comes fromy boobs and daddy has a long pee (although they have never seen his but their little cousins). Why hide things from kids they are going to learn so why not from their parents?

Yes, some people have different philosophies.

I will be very disappointed if someone reported to CPS for my child if it is not related to abuse and neglect, especially let kids to play Final Fantasy series or Dragon Quest series, even my parents let me to play Grand Theft Auto when I was 10 years old, so no complaint reported from my old school.

At this march though they weren't saying these words or displaying these images in natural or informative ways. Everything was screamed, mocked, insulted, or crass.

I assume you don't go around wearing a six-foot tall three-dimensional vagina costume, or scream *bleeped* words in every sentence, or violently express hate for others all day.

At least in your own home you control the environment to which your kids are exposed. Someday your kids will be adults but they are not yet adults and they need protection from other adults when they are out on the public streets such as this march.

See my post #32

Some women march are good, some women march are bad.

I believe that you don't like those march due to your philosophy reason, but oh well. At least, they aren't your children.

Yes, Charleston had a sister march, too. Not as bad as the one in DC.

Yeah, DC is very big city and you have to keep out of sight as possible.

I had seen many nasty protest in DC so DC seems city with most protest in the nation. :hmm:

I'm small town guy so don't like to live in big city.

A word of advice: profanity will be second (or maybe first) nature to your children if you continue to talk that way in front of them, and they'll have to suppress it as long as they live. My thoughts are a whirlwind of swear words today because my father and uncle cursed so much in my presence when I was a child. It was as if they were trying to create an entire language out of obscenities alone. My high school friends all had a terrible case of potty mouth as well, so my profanity habit was reinforced in that second crucial phase of childhood development.

Now I struggle not to use GD, MF, SOB, SOMFB and all of the other profanity hall-of-famers whenever I'm in situations where it's not appropriate, which is almost all situations.
