Manners matter, and I've noticed an alarming decline in basic courtesy among children today, creating challenges for both adults and other kids who interact with them.
• Children as young as five or six showing shocking disrespect to adults and peers
• Parents often defend or deny their children's behavior instead of correcting it
• Children should display good manners consistently, not just when parents are present
• First impressions based on manners can open or close doors of opportunity
• Even talented kids get overlooked when they display toxic attitudes
• Teaching basic respect like "please" and "thank you" should be non-negotiable
• A stranger once gave my son money simply because he displayed good manners
• Summer break is the perfect time to have conversations about respect before school starts
• Children are a direct reflection of their parents' values and teaching
• It takes a village to create positive environments where children learn respect
