Since kids know they are not aloud to use swear words they use others, such as heck to show expression of annoyance, rejection, disgust, etc. Since it doesn't have a bad meaning I think kids should be aloud to say heck. And it could also be used in other situations such as if they use it like with a noun example: That was a heck of an impressive speech. Have one heck of a good time, then of course it it is just fine.
