It doesn’t take a lot of time for parents to teach their children good manners and to respect themselves and each other. The best place for this to start is in the home and when they are still at a young age.
Children can be naughty and get up to mischief and that’s just part of being a kid but on the flip side, children with good manners are always a pleasure to be around ….
Manners and Respect
When I was just a little girl
My mother use to say
Manners are important
Each and every day
It’s nice to hear a thank you
And a please won’t go astray
So be polite to others
This is what she'd say
So when I became a mother
With children of my own
I taught them from an early age
To have manners in our home
It only takes a moment
A minute from your day
To teach a child manners
That will stay with them always
So mother's teach your daughter
And father's teach your son
To have respect and manners
And this world will be a better one!
