[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP - nowadays it's pretty common for high school seniors to do alumni interviews in connection with applying to the most selective colleges. The competition is very steep and most guidance offices will say to take every advantage offered to you. As for the attitude of the kids, I do think it is the job of us adults to make sure that kids learn the nuances of communication and social graces. Yes, kids nowadays are very busy; no, I don't think that gives them a pass or manners. They are oblivious, but we need to teach them not to be. At the same time, it's important not to judge these young people too harshly. In time many of them will learn to be more diplomatic and self-aware.[/quote] Unless you are dealing with boomers, real time electronic communcation makes most of the social face to face BS irrelevent now adays[/quote]
