[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Um, is there some reason it's impossible to teach your children good manners at home? [/b]So, you want them to learn how to behave at grown-up dinner parties and so? Well, have some grown-up dinner parties and let them participate. The little darlings will figure it out. And if they never do figure out the "appropriate" etiquette for a waltz, I can't imagine this will blight their lives. I never did any of this stuff-- come from a family of working class socialists and my grandparents would have rolloed over in their graves. But I went on to private school, Ivy league college, post-graduate work at Oxbridge, and a rather successful life. And have never for one single instant felt blighted by having missed out on cotillion, debutante balls, and so on.

[b]The Kids Good Manners DVD[/b] was released in March, 2007 and is an interactive, entertaining and educational DVD that teaches important lifetime lessons while reinforcing positive role models and values taught by parents, grandparents and teachers. The Kids Good Manners DVD has been extraordinarily well received and has done incredibly well with diverse focus groups, school districts, day care centers and with parents and grandparents. Children in the DVD are taught proper manners by being presented with a series of social situations. Contestants in the DVD, and children viewing the DVD, are given options for proper behavior in a variety of social situations and awarded points for the correct answer in a game show format.

-----Come on, people!  In all seriousness, how can you subject your children to such antiquated practices that perpetuate racism?  Jane Austen is rolling around in her grave as I type.
