Taken 2

Micro review - good action, same story. The first one is better.

Could you please? And Thank you very much

Today's life skill is on the thing I think makes the world a much nicer place, etiquette. Some people call them manners. It is not a thing of the past and it's a skill everyone can practice - men, women and children.

I remember being at the supermarket with the girls when they were all still very young. T was about 5, M was about 3 1/2 and S was about 2 ... We're walking down the frozen section of the supermarket and T looking at the food and not where she was going bumps into someone. She stops rather abruptly - says "Excuse me - sorry" and keeps walking. And I'm trying to catch up the woman grabs me by the sleeve and says "How did you do that?" and I just looked at her blankly for sec ... "Do what?" I replied. She then proceeds to ask me how I taught the them to be so polite - and that was when I really looked at her strangely ... I just said that I've been teaching them manners since they were old enough to understand. It baffles me that this is not something everyone teaches at home. My girls are older now and it makes me so happy to see them stop and hold the door for someone, or know how to order food politely and clearly... of course, between themselves when they bicker they're not always as thoughtful, but it's usually short lived.

Contained in today's article are a number of links that I will be posting in the future because some of my readers have really been enjoying these reprints and I'm loving some of the discussion that comes with them :) Here is ( Essential Ettiquette for young men )
