What happened to good manners?

Question

https://www.scarymommy.com/what-happened-to-good-manners/ this article says it all! Kids are naturally self-centered and have to be taught that other people’s feelings and comfort level matter just as much as their own.

Answer

Ha, earlier today my 6 year old asked if he could call someone in our family. I said, "no, I don't feel good right now and I don't want to talk to anyone." He asks, "well, what if I talk to them and just tell them you don't want to?" I told him that was rude to do that, so he asks me, "ok, so how can I tell them that you don't want to talk to them POLITELY?" I just died laughing and told him there really wasn't a way. So we called my sister lol.
