God Damn It!

I don't know where he picked this up (ahem), but Calder has taken to occasionally yelling "God Damn It!" when he is ticked off about something. Knowing that others may take offense at this, we have encouraged him to use the phrase "ay caramba!" instead. He hasn't yet mastered this. Last night at dinner, after being told he must eat more of his vegetables, he yelled "ay karate!" My son: coiner of new and exciting ways to curse.

Perhaps "ay karate" is better, because "ay caramba' spoken emphatically or colloquially means "Damn It" even though it translates into "good grief"
