Raven and Pencil, you two make valid points; however, I find that's just a small price to pay. We are not their parents, so we shouldn't feel responsible if they discover a swear on here. If they do, they can simply ask their parents/sibling/guardian what it means. Honestly, this website shouldn't even be ready by little children, as members must be 13 and older to join. Please don't tell me with a straight face that they'll never swear once in their life. Many kids (myself included) overhear parents, siblings and other family members swear all the time, so I don't see how this is any different. I feel protecting them by censoring isn't the answer when this isn't a website that should have little children on it. The chances of them reading this is not very high, and even if they do, it's not a big deal. We can all agree swearing is natural and is a part of life, and depriving that on here isn't a good idea, imo. I just find it illogical to protect children when they have parents/guardians to do that. We don't have any responsibility or necessary need to do that, so doing it seems pointless.

In conclusion, why should we censor swears on a website largely populated by teenagers/young adults just for little children that truthfully shouldn't be on here at all?

Agreed with Jessie, Sai and US. Definitely.
