What are Good Manners?

Courtesy, politeness or
having good
manners are all about
respecting others and
yourself.
How would you feel if
someone:

talked to your
friend but
turned
his/her back
on you?
Or if someone

pushed you
out of the
way to get
the seat you
were about to
sit on?
Or if someone

let the door


slam in your
face as you
were about to
walk through
it?
Or if someone

shared your
things but
never shared
anything of
theirs?
Or if someone

never said
'please,
excuse me,
or 'thank
you?
Good manners is about
considering the feelings of
other people, and being the
kind of person that others will
like and respect.
In the 'olden
days' children
were taught
about the
Golden Rule:
Or in
simpler
words:
To make it simple:

If you show good


manners
everywhere you go

then you are more


likely to encourage
others to behave in
the same way
towards you.
