Default dealing with swear words

Hi everyone,
This morning I had a class with two of my very young students ( about 8 ) and one of them said : do you know
"what the f..."means ? Does it mean anything? I said : " Yes I do" but I didn't translate into French. I just said it's not polite and you're too young to learn swear words. I personally think that even swear words should be taught to students learning a foreign language( it's also part of a language ) but I think they're a bit young!!!. What do you think?
