Summary
Civility and politeness are important in society, and it is crucial for parents to teach their children these values. Politeness leads to respect and appreciation from others, and it sets a standard for expected behavior. Modeling polite behavior and prompting children to say please and thank you are effective ways to develop these habits. Writing thank you notes by hand is also a valuable practice. It is important to consider cultural differences in expectations of politeness and teach children to be sensitive and aware of different cultures. By modeling and setting high expectations, parents can raise polite members of society.
