Amy Vanderbilt's Nightmare (Article) - 5/9/2009 3:54:42 AM
Great article and timely too! The young people of today need to re-learn the basics of good manners, like "thank you", "please" and
"Excuse Me". Simple things like letting the elder go ahead through the door, helping cross the street, taking off baseball caps in church, covering one's mouth when coughing, getting rid of gum when talking, or simply standing up as a sign or respect. Just reading what they write on blogs shocks one already! The way they express themselves in street smart vulgar lingo that is full of curse words!
That alone reflects how they think - good manners? Maybe we should wake up!
