Saying please and thank you is probably the first lesson we teach our children, in the realm of mannerly conduct.  You may think this lesson is all about the action of your child saying these few words to you as the adult, but is this action more of a global event?

When you teach your child to say please and thank you, in effect, that is what will be the response.  However, your conscious lesson is much more than what is going on under your roof or around your kitchen table. …you are playing a much bigger role, in a much bigger plan, of carrying on and carrying out civilization.

You cannot have civilization without civility. The passing of this time tested courtesy is your part of not only building your personal legacy, but also, the legacy of your family……the human race.
