Parents should start teaching when they are small...when they go to school the teachers should enforce the manners which should have already been taught to the child...  |

my thoughts exactly.. think about it when did u learn your manners? Most of us can say b4 we went into Kindergarden. Yet many college students were complaining that their teachers never taught them manners.  |

I agree with you, it's the parent's job to teach the manners. In school, it's their job to teach math and english.  |

Well I will never require my child to say YES MA'AM to everything I say - I expect him to know how to respect people, and if he sees me and my husband respecting people, he will learn from us... No i do not think that it is the schools responsibility to teach our children everything. It is the parents job to teach what is respectful and what is not..... Truth is most children know what manners are--- THEY just dont use them. Like me for example, I was raised without having to say yes sir no sir, yes ma'am no ma'am, thankyou, and all that! But not that im older, I know how to use my manners. I hate when i see a parent say (WHAT DO YOU SAY....????) Usually the child knows they are suppose to say thankyou! I dont know this is a touchy subject for me, BUT TO ANSWER your question - lol ...... it should be the parents job - sorry for rambling!  |

I think it all begins at home with the parents, the the teachers can enforce it.  |

Absolutely!!! I don't consider some parents able to teach their children manners, due to the fact that some parents weren't taught them either.... Coolade  |

Children do spend a lot of time at schools, but no. I think its up to the parents what types of manners they want to teach their children.  |

Children should at least be taught common courtesy- in school and at home. Among other things.  |

my parents taught me manners and i would be highly ticked off if i ever have kids and a school tries it because i have a different idea of what is manners than most people  |

I think your right. I also think it would add more time to school. I can't stand it.  |

I wish somebody would! Not all parents can be depended upon to teach manners to their children, and so it seems like this too will fall to the teachers to teach children a subject that they should have learned at home! I am appalled at some of the ways that I see children acting and the language they are allowed to use! I think maybe that first we need to teach some parents before we can expect the children to learn!  |

Very good point jestr.. I hadn't thought of that but it is very true many ppl have different types of manners and want their children to behave a different way. It would tick me off it the school taught my child something that I don't even believe in myself. |

i don't think the school's should because people manners are different. My house is different from your house, they should teach common curtisy. RacerX |

They could try and teach them, but I don't think it would make any difference.  |
