【推荐3】How many times have we expressed how rude young people are for texting while having a conversation?They try to fix eyes on their smartphone screen while nodding.What goes through your mind is “how rude they are!”
Have we forgotten some of the old school manners that our parents, grandparents and teachers taught us manners that have nothing to do with a mobile device or iPad,but everything to do with long-forgotten Golden Rules we were raised with?
When I was growing up,there was etiquette to coughing.When coughing,we were told to turn our head away and block off our mouth.This might sound amusing to many young people.But if we didn't follow these etiquettes,we would get a quick reminder to the back of our head When we were given something,and forgot to say “thank you”,elders would seriously remind us,“aren’t you forgetting to say something”,which was immediately followed by a “thank you”.
Maybe technology has affected our brains so much that we can never go back to those golden days we like.It seems as if we have thrown out manners and etiquette with the bathwater.Simple etiquette is missing in society.A thank-you note for a gift you have received all fall into the same box of manners.People are just cold these days because we are on the run every day in the world.
In the work environment have you ever come across a sign:“Your mother doesn’t work here,clean up by yourself”?We often hear people say, the younger generation have no manners.I think many people have lost their manners.We’ve allowed bad manners to go unchecked.We simply stand bad behavior.
In a world of more good manners,more “thank you” or “please” exchanged, our younger generation will have an improved quality of life.
