[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you say please and thank/you? To waitstaff, clerks, etc? I think if you are too militant you end up.with and eddy Haskell... If you gently remind and model you eventually get sound and polite child/adult. 7 is too young.[/quote] NP. You're crazy. I have 5 yo and 3 yo boys, who are ALWAYS polite. They're literally heard nothing else since they were born. And that includes the programs they're allowed to watch.[/quote] Seven is no way too young. I have a almost three year old and he is expected (and promoted as needed) to thank check out staff, servers, daycare providers, and others who help us in any way. I’m sure we will have to continue to prompt and remind as he gets older and that’s just fine. Keep repeating it over and over, as needed [/quote]
