NYTimes online and I are the best of buds, on days off and weekends at least. I know my dad is smiling down as I write this thinking that he taught me well by example of living a readerly life! As I read THIS article http://www.nytimes.com/2012/12/27/garden/eat-drink-be-nice-teaching-children-manners.html?_r=0 I was thinking about parents teaching their children and the whole concept of manners shared through examples.
At Chenery Park, and at other places around the country, there are upscale dining places with training wheels teaching manners to a new generation of children. Think Emily Post for a new generation! At Cherery Park, the five one-hour sessions cost $285!
While I really was thinking I could start a retirement teaching business chain focused on this, I would also want to sell Tshirts with this quote!
