Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Bingo. I will say my mum absolutely hates how liberal I am with swears in my house and around my kids. "It's not how I raised you"
I repeatedly tell her we all swear. I can't put the genie back in the bottle. What I can do is provide my kids a safe space and teach them how to understand context around swearing and when it's acceptable.
Edit - I don't understand why some people are so puritanical over words.
It's all a weird act. Kids swear around other kids, adults swear around other adults, but oh no, you can't let kids hear those dangerous swear words that they already know and use every day.
Your mom needs to be introduced to George Carlin, starting with his classic Class Clown album. The section leading up to and including the Seven Words You Can't Say on TV (at the time it was recorded in the mid 1970s) particularly addresses how words themselves are just a collection of meaningless syllables without the intent ascribed to them.
