[quote=Anonymous]My kids were raised saying yes ma'am, no sir, etc. We are from the Deep South where literally all the kids are raised that way. When we moved to D.C. my kids' teachers would go on and on about how well-behaved and well-mannered my kids were. I could not understand it. They are good kids, but there is certainly nothing special about the way they behave. It took me half of that first school year to realize that it was simply the "yes ma'am" thing that made their teachers perceive them as these wonderful kids. [/quote]
