A listener got in touch 'Hi Ciara, I am wondering if you can help me. Our 4 year old has started to use a couple of bad words fairly frequently over the last while, we have tried ignoring it but that hasn’t stopped it at all... We were hoping to get it sorted before lockdown is lifted but he was on facetime with his grandparents yesterday and he said the f word and my mother was horrified! Anyone else experience this with their kids and know what can be done?' Ciara chats to listeners
