NO CUSSING!

A 14 year old school kid from the states has started a no cussing club to encourage people to "Raise our Level of Communication". McKay Hatch originally challenged his friends to "No Cussing", this then spread into the wider community as a club. The website claims that over 20 000 people worldwide have joined his campaign.

I watched his interview on the Dr. Phil show a few weeks ago. He pretty much said that he wanted people to find other ways to release our frustration and anger instead of using unnecessary swearing. But Dr. Phil asked him whether he uses any other words that sound (or rhyme) with swear words in the place of profanities, and he does. So how is that greatly different from actually swearing?

The kid has created a rap video, written a book with substitute words and there are even club shirts. xx
