Sorry I replied so late!
Thanks! (to the part about liking my name)
I’m not an expert on the subject. Personally I don’t put swearing in any of my stories. (Just a personal standard) I have read a few MG books with swearing in them. (But usually by the time I read them, my mom had colored over those words with a black marker hehe! 😆 )
As far as the awkward crush moments, it would depend on the intensity. A large amount of what I write is romance. So I’m more familiar with that.
I definitely don’t think that swearing is a good thing for children to be reading. Maybe that’s just me. But the more someone reads something, the more it’s going to be in their mind and there is the temptation to say it.
I’d largely agree with @shannon
