    This is very important, my son already know his pleases and thank yous….although they sound more like this…“PEEEEEEEEEAS!” & “ACKU!”

    Thank you Amanda…
    for perpetuating the concept.

    perpetuate – “to cause to last indefinitely” ;)

    Yes sir…...and yes ma’am. We teach by example as I was and continue to be respectful of others

  • Philosophy Lee replied 24 days ago

    Complete self-respect
    allows for the respect
    of all individuals…
    Thank YOU! :)

    I like Lisa have a feeling you tought them more but the above are indeed one of the cornerstone lessons for living with other human beings in this world …never just take without asking….and always show gratitude for what you are given ….so many things would be different if more learnt these simple truths. Extremely wise in its simplicity xx:)

  • Philosophy Lee replied 24 days ago

    Thank you for seeing what I see valentina…
    Courtesy IS all good! :)
