I would.. I don't see it as overly offensive unless I'm not "getting" it.</p> <p>ETA: I grew up on a farm and our barn boots were regularly called sh!t kickers... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2263304 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 07:33:04 +0000 rosegold 2263304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nope. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2263198 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 02:20:44 +0000 Bubbles 2263198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably not to school as I wouldn't want him to get in trouble, but aside from that it wouldn't bother me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2263197 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 01:45:44 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2263197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm also in the camp that I'd let him wear the shirt. Perhaps not to school because he may be required to change it, but running errands all day on the weekend would be fine. It's a cool shirt and as a 7 year old he's getting a kick out of the red dirt way more than the faux swear word anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2263188 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 00:11:07 +0000 Meowkers 2263188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no. not okay with it for a kid or an adult.

I had one of those shirts (not that exact one, obviously) when I lived there as a kid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262765 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:48:42 +0000 looch 2262765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: @Alivoo01: ok, got it.</p> <p>Yeah, I'd be fine with it. I have seen worse and while I am generally not a fan of clothing with writing on it, this one doesn't bother me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262759 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:44:42 +0000 Alivoo01 2262759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: @Mamaof2: Oklahoma is known for their red dirt/clay. It's all we have there. It sucks and it stains!</p> <p>As for the shirt, I probably wouldn't let him wear it out and about. But since your hubby bought it, like you said, I'd let him wear it as pj or something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262745 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:38:47 +0000 catomd00 2262745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No and I wouldn't go out in public with my husband either if he was wearing it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262744 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:38:20 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2262744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262742 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:38:05 +0000 Mamaof2 2262742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: apparently its what makes the shirt red - its soaked in red dirt </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262735 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:37:02 +0000 looch 2262735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What's a red dirt shirt?

We plan to be fairly lax about swearing when she's old enough to understand when it's appropriate and when it's not (though we'll limit it to non-sexual and non-abusive to others words, i.e. no f-bombs, no calling someone a b****), but not at 7. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262723 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:31:23 +0000 psw27 2262723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not with the $%*! on it... except maybe to bed.

Not for a 7 yr old... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262700 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:23:57 +0000 snowjewelz 2262700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I wouldn't! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262699 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:23:14 +0000 rachiecakes 2262699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>lol my dad would totally get something like this for my son.<br /> and no, I would not let him wear it - maaaybe to bed </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262697 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:22:08 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 2262697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There are plenty of red dirt shirts that don't have anything to do with violence... I'd get him a different one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262688 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:16:24 +0000 Mrs. Peanut 2262688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. They wouldn't be allowed to swear, so I see no reason for them to wear a shirt with a swear word on it, even if it's censored. The message is the same. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262682 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:14:28 +0000 ShootingStar 2262682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. Not just because of the allusion to profanity, but as a whole it just seems trashy to me. Sorry. But then I tend to dress my kid in very few graphic tees. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262679 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:12:57 +0000 birdofafeather 2262679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not a fan and probably a no for me for a kid that age especially. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262678 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:12:54 +0000 Mamaof2 2262678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks all!</p> <p>DH bought this shirt on his last work trip - I was like WTF were you thinking!?! DS loves it because it was made from mud (so the tag says) - I told DS he could wear it around the house but that's it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-kid-wear-this-shirt-in-public#post-2262675 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:11:21 +0000 littlebug 2262675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. Not appropriate for a kid, I think.
