raising my niece and nephews off and on i've always tried hard to not curse much around them.
when it happens, they giggle. i grin. every now and then they'll test me by saying something. i ignore it, it rarely happens again.
they don't curse in front of anyone else, though. they are learning both how to not get in trouble and how to show respect.
as for Eminem being a good dad? who are we to say? seeing a guy on tv or in a magazine isn't a great tool to use on judeging someone.
most likely he tries hard to not curse exceedingly. besides, the teachers of Hailey would probably have to call him every ten minutes when she's in school for cursing.
i'm no father of children and am glad I am not. I have a high respect for people who not only do a good job but try really hard, too. effort is important. and in this case, effort is actually effective: it will show later in life.
i hope he's a good dad. every kid needs one.
