Education and Manners
Manners
In my country, manners are very important to people because we were all raised to respect other people and especially the elders. In our society today, it is difficult to find people who still use the simple words “please” and “thank you” on a daily basis. I agree that manners are rapidly declining in today society because of parents, teachers and teenagers.
One of the reasons that manners are rapidly declining in our society is because of parents. When a parent allows their children to use profane language in front of people, they encourage their children to use bad manners. For example, my cousin Samar was born and raised in the United States, and his parents do not care when he use bad language in front of people because here in the United States parents are not allowed to hit their children. However, where I was raised, if I say any bad words in front of people and my parents were with me, they would hit me hard until say I am sorry. Because if parents do not pay attention on what their children are saying the children will not have any respect or manners for anybody. In addition, when the parents allow their children to wear hats in the house or let them play video games at the dinner table that is bad manners. In the article R-E-S-P-E-C-T, it stated that “if impoliteness around the household continues to go unnoticed, the rude children will someday turn into rude adults, continuing the current trend of disrespectfulness” (Odyssey book Pg 584). I agree that rude children will someday turn into rude adults because if know one teaches them how to be respectful the children will never learn. As a result, parents should pay attention on what their children are saying or doing. The second reason why manners are rapidly declining in our society today is because of the teachers. When teachers allow their students to talk back to them and the teacher does not do anything that is bad manners. For example, when I was in high school, some of my teachers
