Too tensed today….

I am gutted, I had to change my TV channel and had to slap my son. Today I realised what it is like, to bring up your very young child in a wrong surroundings or culture (we are in 21st century).
My son is just 2 years and 5 months old. I was watching this stupid “Shameless” serial, its a family drama. This serial is full of foul language and is packed with sex, drugs, gratuitous violence, love and scams.
One of the characters in the serial was using Fuck word again and again. My son who was busy playing with his toys (I thought so) picked it up and started shouting the F word. Now this is a very common word or language here, but we as “Indians” never use this language in our house and never in front of our kid. But I am thinking how long can I stop him or slap him for using this word. I mean what about, when he will start his school and will have friends from other cultures.
God! I will not have a goodnight sleep today.
