How many times did you hear your Mom or Dad say "use that dirty language and I'll wash your mouth out with soap?" Well, as I think about having kids, it occurred to me I'd sure like a product that I could use to make good on that threat!

Yeah, a product that makes child abuse easier is really needed in today's hectic environment. . .

How about SOAP? Abuse happens when they get thrown in the cage and drop it, not when they clean their filthy tongues with it.

there are no bad words ,only bad people that have hate for free speech.don't give power to that kind of thinking,(acceptable hate) is wrong.people use curse words, don't be offended by it.thats the fuel for hate!don't teach hate ,teach only acceptance of others.

When i was a kid soap seemed to work pretty good at doing this job, then my parents discovered much more effective "correction" such as beating the shit out of me with a leather belt hehe and I think that it has made me a better person. I will never lay a finger on my kids, and I am not a violent person as a result of my discipline

You people are nuts. I think its a great idea. My grandmother put hot sauce on our tongues when we used foul language, it taught me respect for women and my elders. When your a child things are as simple as good or bad, and all I knew was that I didn't want to hold a bar of soap in my mouth or have it on fire. So I didn't use trashy language around my elders. Its a great habit that I still have to this day. ( not like your little monsters).
