I'm talking about legitimate situations where the kids have not been exposed to that language and I'm not talking about fuck, shit, or even bitch but words that are considered slurs and fairly universally offensive ones.

I guess I grew up in a different environment
I honestly knew that word by at least age 7...probably younger. What age is Huck Finn usually taught? I don't remember reading it in school. I read it on my own.
