[quote=Anonymous]My husband's parents never took him out at a child (they were welfare-poor), and he struggles in restaurants (he only orders food he can eat with his hands, even at nicer restaurants, he eats off the serving plate, he double dips, he stacks dirty dishes in the middle of the table, etc). It's noticeable, and I think it has set him back a little, professionally. He is very ambitious and well educated (JD from an Ivy), but he lacks a lot of social graces. I don't want the same for my son, so I take him out and we practice good manners. We go to family-friendly places (not Ruth's Chris on NYE), but we talk about how to behave.[/quote]
