Our kids learned all the manners they needed from The Simpsons.
🙂 Seriously, I don’t know if you’ve noticed this: it is fairly easy to predict what a parent’s demeanor will be before you even meet them simply by watching their child, especially when the kids get into double-digit ages. My point: act as you want your child to act and they’ll pick it right up. Be respectful, courteous, and even tempered to your child and others and your kids will soak it in by example.
Children today are tyrants. They contradict their parents, gobble their food, and tyrannize their teachers.
Socrates (469 BC – 399 BC)
