RE: Manners in the modern world

in #ethics7 years ago

My parents, and grandmother, taught me to have manners as a way of showing respect; whether to my elders or people in general. They instilled manners and polite words into my head and me from an early age; and I have carried those words of wisdom through my entire life.

Yes, there are times I get upset or would love to argue with someone, but I choose to not. I politely say my goodbyes and go on my way. I also taught my children to stand up for themselves all the while being respectful to others. The Golden Rule we were all taught years ago comes to mind here.
