Do manners and common courtesy exist today. Do parents teach their children these basic virtues. Do Parent practice them so there Children learn them. Let me know what you think. I would love to hear other prospectives.

I am trying my best to bring manners back to everyone. I do teach my son manners, I also do not use curse words. Of course I am not normal by any means, I have multipule tattoos and body piercings, but that does not make me a bad person. Just a few weeks ago a cashier gave me $5.00 too much back, working at a bank i immediatly saw the subtraction error and gave the money back to her. Now honestly how many of you would have done that!

Honestly I would and I have done something simalar. Continue to be an example to others/ that is what will change the world. If you don't stand for something you will fall for anything/

yes, there is a lack of common courtesy, parents don't teach their kids any basic virtues, or don't enforce them.

The unfortunate thing that I have seen is that no matter what morals or values you raise your children with, they are the ones that choose what they do in life. I speak this from experience.
