Manners can feel complicated in today’s world—especially when parents are juggling busy schedules, big feelings, and constant communication through screens. On the latest episode of Raising Me, host Adrienne Stein speaks with Daniel Post Senning of the Emily Post Institute about modern etiquette and how parents can teach manners in a way that feels practical, warm, and realistic.

Post-Senning, the great-great-grandson of etiquette icon Emily Post, shares guidance on what etiquette really means today, how parents can correct behavior without shaming kids, and why modeling respect at home matters. The conversation also touches on modern “hot spots” like phones at the table and navigating social situations with kindness and confidence.

The episode offers parents simple strategies they can use right away—helping kids build social skills that work in real life, online and off.
