We all are exposed to cussing or bullying every day whether at school or at work. Very much so in High School. But what those people don't seem to take into consideration is the effect that will have on the person's life, it could cause them to make bad choices to fit in,or even hurt themselves.

"Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear."- Ephesians 4:29
