Steve, you misread my post. I said "'truth' in that sense" meaning that even if the homework truly was a load of sh*t, my kid wouldn't be allowed to say that because that specific word is in the profanity category. Thus making the quality of the homework completely irrelevant to the language used by the student to comment upon it.
Also, spellcheckers have their limits - I think you meant precedent not president!

But you know I like you anyway!
