When you are younger you don’t tend to look past your own world unlike when you are that little bit older your own experiences tell you to think of others as well as yourself. Thinking about it those people that are not courteous, pleasant or helpful probably wouldn’t be bothered if somebody was ill mannered to them. In my mind I can’t imagine they would be bothered nor can I imagine them teaching their own kids manners. I’m teaching my kids manners, sometimes I end up teaching other peoples kids; especially the word “Please”! I think age does play a part.
