There's generally two responses to the posting of licensed material:<br /><br />1) "Hey, that's mine! Take that down. I have rights to that!" In which case, YouTube takes the video down. (Television shows do this a lot.)<br /><br />2) "Hey! Free advertisement! Cool!" In which case, they actively encourage people to post their stuff. I'm not sure, but I think Pokemon and a lot of video games fall under this category.Stephaniehttp://embracingchaos.stephanieallencrist.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8508619860116485212.post-68571371286344348682011-03-08T20:13:29.497-05:002011-03-08T20:13:29.497-05:00@ Stephanie-Thanks for the info on where "Hal...@ Stephanie-Thanks for the info on where "Halt" came from-that one really threw me-I seem to equate the word with guards..castles..very upright and proper things...all of which I am not! :) My kids are militant about other peoples language at our house..which I have had to temper a little bit..but discussion is good. Yeah..Youtube..wow..I really find myself perplexed as to what some people actually post-using Mario, Pokemon..and even my little ponies. :)<br /><br />@Casdok-thanks :)<br /><br />@hatesocks-Firstly-I LOVE your blog name! Just made me laugh..:) How funny-most of the parents I talk to about this ALL have made the word "Stupid" or anything similar out to be horrible...which it is..But, I wonder if parents of kids not on the spectrum teach the same lessons? :)kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07648854807234137885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8508619860116485212.post-34068831574957864802011-03-08T12:18:46.833-05:002011-03-08T12:18:46.833-05:00Hilarious and a good lesson to boot!

We still slip sometimes, but now we tend to watch other people's words (while they're in our house). Recently I had to explain why I would prefer one guest not to call another guest the "r" word around my kids (or at all). It became a group discussion and I wasn't alone in my position, so I guess that's good. Not sure if I impressed the significance of the word on my intended audience, though.<br /><br />YouTube is horrid about those naughty words, though. Willy is a master of YouTube, just like Oscar, and it's amazing some of the words he's come across searching for things as benign as Pokemon.<br /><br />("Halt!" is a frequent command in children's adventure fiction)Stephaniehttp://embracingchaos.stephanieallencrist.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8508619860116485212.post-55669000094069118342011-03-06T10:45:49.850-05:002011-03-06T10:45:49.850-05:00@ Lizbeth-Ha-yeah we have minor set backs here all...@ Lizbeth-Ha-yeah we have minor set backs here all the time..;0 I LOVE "Idiot Abroad"!!!<br /><br />@Donna-Thanks..:)<br /><br />@BigDaddy-You and yours are always welcome for dinner-my herd would very much enjoy correcting you. :)<br /><br />@Kwombles-hee-yup!<br /><br />@Diane-HA!

Mama Bear and I have been known to use the occasional four-letter word, but those go right over his head. He doesn't even repeat them—probably because they don't usually make literal sense. But let someone use the word "stupid", and regardless of context, he's all over them: "Mom!

I knew I was in trouble when my oldest learned to speak - he had a speech delay, so I was off the hook for a while - and said "dammit" very matter-of-factly right in front of my dad after his little Cozy Coupe car fell over in the livingroom. <br /><br />He's a teenager now, so nothing I say at home even registers after all the stuff he hears at school. After losing a bunch of money to a swearing jar we tried for a while when he was getting pretty bad, he now frequently say the word "BEEP" with a raised pitch when he's repeating a story that requires an expletive. He's normally got a deeper voice than my husband, so the "BEEP" comes out pretty funny.Dianehttp://dianeltufts.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8508619860116485212.post-81902282944665351862011-03-05T14:08:29.277-05:002011-03-05T14:08:29.277-05:00Hee!
