Good manners is parents responsiblity and there are a lot of people out there who don't have them. I worked with drug, gang and AA Kids for 16 years and part of our mission was to teach respect and trust. Most of the kids I worked with were good kids but no training or little respect for themselves or others.
My only peve was when they would call me Sir (call my father Sir) with that funny tone in their voice.
I see people all the time open doors or help other people with packages or luggage. Live in a resort town and they don't expect a tip, just good manners.

Sure there are people out there that don't have or refuse to use good social graces, some of it is culture.
Enought Rant, and I do open doors and give up seats, But don't call me sir, I work for a living. :rolleyes:
