What's your burp tolerance?

What's the burp tolerance in your household?

A. Everyone of us can burp the ABC's and are proud of it.
B. Burping is allowed as long as you say "Excuse me" afterwards.
C. Burping is forbidden. If you must burp, your mouth better be closed with a hand covering it for extra protection from seeping out or making a noise.
D. Other (please specify)

B! Although, I'm afraid with a young uncle that lives close by and is a bad example, we'll have problems with this later on!

B. We all have to burp at some point or another. It's natural....However, forcing burps just to be gross is a bit rude I think. But in our family, if we burp we say excuse me afterwards.

B. However, my husband grew up in a house that was more C, so it was a bit of negotiating. And my brother can say "more beer" while he burps, so we compromise with B.

B. Seriously--with toddlers, who could possibly ban burping? And my husband thinks that when the kids burp, it's so hysterical, I feel it's a major accomplishment that I have even trained them to excuse themselves after they smile proudly. :)

B. although I prefer that they also cover their mouth. But it is allowed. However, now that I have a almost 6 year old we have to repeatly remind him to not make himself burp.

other. Sometimes we just burp outloud and it is no big deal. Sometimes it matters and we say excuse me like if guests are around. We haven't acknowledge Cedric's burps yet but we will teach him excuse me.
