Manners - are they a thing of the past??

So why are some of these manners not being taught as much?  There used to be schools that taught us manners.  I  can't remember when the last person said thank you.

Well, there are a lot of different factors people blame for the mannerless change.

Some folks blame computers and the internet, we spend a lot of time using them which is time we're not spending around other people and being social....

Or we're finding some manners aren't that relevant to our society anymore, some people may even think seating a woman at a table is sexist! And we're even making up our own rules about manners, like not using phones on public transport or not writing emails with the Caps Lock on, because some people think it means they're being shouted at.

So it doesn't necessarily mean kids today are mannerless, but maybe the way you show your good manners has changed.

What are your thoughts?
