One of the most important things that I want to teach to all of my children is how to use proper manners. I think that so many kids in today’s word do not know how to be polite. It is really disgusting when I see children eating with their hands and throwing things at the dinner table. Today, I started teaching my youngest daughter about how to say “thank you” when somebody has done something nice for you. She has been practicing all day long. I am also teaching my son about how to properly eat his food. He now knows that he should not ever place his elbows on the table. I know that other people are going to tell me that I have the most polite children in the community. I am very proud of them and all that they have learned. When they grow up, I am sure that they will be polite adults as well.
