Your father and your mother will rejoice.—Prov. 23:25.
The
value of training our children to be well-mannered cannot be
overestimated. To get along well as adults, young ones need to learn
the proper way to greet visitors, to answer the telephone, and to eat
a meal with others. They should be helped to understand why they
ought to hold doors for people, show kindness to the elderly and
sick, and offer to help those carrying heavy packages. They need to
understand the importance of sincerely saying “please,” “thank
you,” “you are welcome,” “may I help you?,” and “I am
sorry.” The best way to train children to be courteous is by
setting a good example. Thus, children will be able to make friends
and will maintain peace with others. They will be well-equipped to
work with employers and coworkers. Moreover, children who are
courteous, mannerly, and upright will bring their parents joy and
satisfaction.—Prov. 23:24. w09
