The Potty Mouth Possum Cleans Up His Act
Daddy Possum “cussed” a lot. He cares about his kids and family very much, but he “cusses” while working on cars, doing yardwork, and even at network newscasters. He’s a cranky Possum-dad and Mommy Possum must explain to her little possums that just because dad says potty words doesn’t mean they can too. He doesn’t stop, even when Mommy Possum asks him. But, when his little girl starts “cussing”, he sees the error of his ways, puts down the remote, edits his vocabulary, and spends time playing with his little possums. He’s much happier and his family loves him for it.
