"You mean the one that starts with F?"
After the deafening silence that followed, I took a stroll out to the living room with her to ask her what bad "f" words she had heard. (We didn't want her younger brother to pick up anything new.) At this point, of course, she was all wide-eyed goody-twoshoe innocence. "Bad words that start with F? You must have misunderstood me, Dad. I don't know anything about any bad words."
