[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A sense of superiority and elite snobbery is exactly what these programs promote. That's why they advertise with "invitations" to kids who attend certain schools. I gag every time we get one of those in the mail. The best way to teach your kids manners is by modeling them yourself; that plus a little role-playing ("So, let's practice what you'll do and say when we introduce you to a friend of ours for the first time.") and encouragement is all it takes. These programs aren't about manners; they're about some 1950s-relic of an idea that you only want your children to associate with other people just like them. Get over it and join the 21st Century.
