[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've noticed this in stores - no one says "excuse me" or "pardon me" if they need to get by, or cross in front of someone. It's not an age thing either - I'm 45, and people my age or older don't say it anymore, either. Younger, all races, skin colors, etc. My parents were brown immigrants and raised us to have basic manners and courtesy. When did this basic courtesy stop? And why? [/quote] I say excuse me and taught my children as well as teaching them to say Please,Thank You. Good morning/, afternoon or evening. I also taught them to hold doors open if someone was behind them. It is the duty of parents to teach good manners to their children. Sadly, so few Millennials display good manners themselves. [/quote] +100 but I notice when young people are surrounded by other young g people who do not use those manners, they don’t either. There is an overabundance of what the kids refer to as “main characters.”[/quote]
