It seems that many people never learned the same things that I did, or if they learned them, don't use them.
What has changed? Is it that these are just not important any more? Were they ever important?
An 80 year old friend of mine told me a story of a friend who went to his house when he was a child. He sat down at the dinner table with his hat on. Friend's mother didn't say a word, but went to friend, took the hat off his head and threw it to the floor.
For me, I have seen people stand at a door or window and look in. That was a big no-no for us, to look in people's windows.
What about you? What manners were you taught that seem to be passe now?
