ORIGINAL: corsetgirl I was on vacation to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee and had to board a trolley car. When the time came for my mother and I to stand, there were a couple of young adult males and females who gave up their seats for my mother and I to sit on them Nice show of politeness. I haven't seen that same thing too much myself. quote:
I also find in my area that the elderly people can have less manners than the younger people. I guess simply because in their belief they feel entitled to some things because they are older. Personally, I don't care how old you, there is still no excuse to be rude True. But just as we're supposed to respect our elders in general, I think it's also good to realize that they've kind of "paid their dues" and lived alot longer, so why not look over their less than polite behavior sometimes? It's still not excuse to be downright mean, though .........luci
