I think it's a two-way street....Rude parents begat rude kids. And you don't usually see rude kids without rude parents. Think Mobius strip...

My parents were very polite.

Therefore, how do you explain me??

You are in your own league.

Ali/Bing whatever your name is this week

:

If you're not polite I don't know who is. Sarcastic, acerbic, witty, occasionally caustic, but always polite!

No, because it's the parents being rude in bringing their uncontrolled kids with them. Like Chase said, blame the parents not the children! The kids know not how to act because the parents don't care...

Not at all an old fogey!

Here are some phrases and adjectives from Scripture which describe people in the end days of the world:

Lovers of themselves.
Lovers of money.
Boastful, proud, abusive.
Disobedient to their parents.
Ungrateful, unholy.
Without love.
Unforgiving, slanderous.
Without self-control.
Brutal.
Not lovers of the good.
Treacherous, rash, conceited.

And that is all contained in one paragraph (2 Tim. ch 3). So we need not expect much better in the days to come. It will be the general way of life.

We need to start our own gang of goodies, and go around in large groups, doing nice things for people. Candy bars would be our weapons, or carrots in case somebody objects to giving teeth-rotting candy to their kids. We could go onto somebody's property and wash their car or cut their grass.

So who wants to join my gang?

... and, besides all of that, I like Ali BECAUSE of that

MEEEEEE... Being nice just feels better. There's too much of that other stuff going on.
