In this fast paced, complex world of technology and social media, let’s remind ourselves, our children and those around us to USE these three simple manners we learned as toddlers.
Simple Manners that SHOULD last thru time (no matter HOW old you are):
“ThreePeat” after me:
1. If you need help, if you need something, if you need anything, please just Say PLEASE.
2. Be grateful for the actions of others, be humble, if you receive a compliment, if you appreciate something, Say THANK YOU.
3. If you mess up, and we all will once in a while….Say I’M SORRY.
A simple concept, that surprisingly needs to be used a lot more! Especially with adults. 🙂
Nice reminder. Why is it that adults so seldom feel the need to apologize to children? We preach these ideals, but if we don’t also practice and model them, what do our children really learn?
Happy Sharefest. I hope you have a lovely weekend.
So true. Our children are watching….and learning from our actions, not always our words to them. Thanks so much for reading and commenting. 🙂
