It's a day that ends in "y," so of course we're learning something new about Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell's many approaches to parenting.
Of course, you know that Dax and Kristen share two daughters together — because they are constantly spilling on their own parenting habits. They've been so forthcoming that, just last week, we literally included them on a list of celebrities who share too much of their parenting habits. (It's a good read, too!)
You probably don't know that yesterday was my birthday — and in what I'm assuming was a strange birthday present beamed from the internet directly to my home, the latest episode of Dax's Armchair Expert podcast went live, in which Dax revealed that he and Kristen let their two children swear in the house.
“They are allowed to swear, not with impunity, but when it’s called for," he said. "And they land it, and it’s in the house and not out at a restaurant, it’s OK.”
Dax also said that he swears in front of his kids, and that he has a creative way of dealing with their own occasional potty-mouthed streaks. “I just told the girls, like, ‘Hey, these are noises that come out of your mouth, and you assign what they mean to you,'" he explained.
For what it's worth, his podcast guest Seth Meyers said that he doesn't practice the same, uh, values with his children — mostly because of "the fear that they’re gonna take it to school." So: Parents of BuzzFeed, where do you stand? Take your take to the comments.
