If my son asks me about it, I will see that it's not bad, although people say it is. That it's just a word. However, people could take offense to it or it can seem impolite or demeaning. To be respectful, try to avoid using the word.
At a young age, I would say that "we don't use that word. It is an adult word and can be used to be mean, but also can be used without harm, but it is still an adult word".
If he is a teenager or adult, he may use it, but with caution and the proper usage- NEVER with the word "you", if you know where I'm going.
I want my son to be able to know that he has the choice, that he can learn to think of others first, think before he speaks, and is aware of the consequences.
