All over the world mothers and fathers teach their children manners. Other children may have manners that are not like yours. There are all kinds of manners.

Many years ago, children who had good manners were seen and not heard. They kept quite quiet if grown?ups were talking. Today, well?mannered children have more freedom.

Sometimes good manners in one place are bad manners in other places.

In some countries, if you give a loud burp, you are told to say, “Excuse me, please.”
