My cousins, Shane, Mitchell & Sarah are Pottymouths. Seriously, they swear all the time, whenever I come over. No matter how many times I tell them to stop, they never listen. What should I do?

I swear like a sailor.  It naturally fits into my flow of language

 

If they're not allowed to swear, rat them out (seems sneaky but it's fastest and quickest way to deal with shit I don't know how old this people are)

If they are then just point out that they're sad.

No one likes being called sad

Otherwise desensitize yourself 

The probably do it on purpose because they know it bugs you. Just play it cool. Ignore them.

well, since they won't listen, and you told them not to, you should go into another room and avoid them, or just ignore what they saying and focus on something else.

If it's becoming a constant problem, tell their parents.

I mostly swear when I'm angry about something or for exaggeration,but I won't swear as much as ..say..the Angry Video Game Nerd

Well, they're either trying to annoy you or that's just how they talk. In the first case, you could tell on them if you want. Their parents would probably get mad and they might stop. But if that's part of their normal speech pattern, you may just have to ignore it. I curse a lot and sometimes it just slips out, even if I'm trying to be respectful of someone. It's like if someone told you you couldn't use a certain word all day. Even if you meant to stop, you might keep saying it out of habit.

Hahaha, that's funny!

I don't like to swear. Tell them how you feel and ask that they respect your wishes if it bothers you. If that doesn't work, the best you can do is ignore them.

Funny thing, Vsauce just made a video about this:http://youtu.be/Dd7dQh8u4Hc

If they won't stop there's not a lot you can do. You can't control them.

To be blunt, your not in a position to control what they do. It is there decision to speak the way they want. What if all 3 of them ganged up on you because you are mister nice mouth? If they are aware they swear a lot and they don't care, then there is nothing you can do.
