So are your children using it to mean "ineffective, stupid, unattractive, pathetic " like Morfe suggests? I'm sure I haven't heard it used in such a way to just mean 'crap'. perhaps my so-called-adult friends are genuinely using it in a more complicated way. Or perhaps I'm just reading too much into it - they obviously don't do it in a serious way, they put a 'silly voice' on to say it. (I'm sure some people will be offended nevertheless).
