[quote=Anonymous]Reminders and modeling the behavior. We try and say Please and Thank You in the house. We remind little man to use his polite words when we need to. I have no idea when he will remember to use a napkin without prompting. Or to say Thank you at the end of a play date or to the person who brought snacks. We are working on it. On the plus side, his friends are just as bad as he is so I don't feel awful about it, I think it is age approrpiate. We also praise him when he uses his manners outside the house. He has recently started ordering for himself at restaurants and we give high fives when he says please and thank you while ordering. We want him to know that we see him doing what we expect him to do. It is not an every time thing but frequently enough that we see him using his manners. [/quote]
