#38 - Saying Thank You Do's and Don'ts

Saying "Thank you" - Do's and Don'ts

> You Do

Say, "Thank you," when your mom hands you your allowance, when the person behind the counter at McDonald's gives you your McNuggets, and when your dad helps you with your homework.

> You Don't

Assume, just because you're used to getting your allowance, pick up your McNuggets, or having help with your homework, that you don't need to say "Thanks."

> Why

It is important to be nice to people who do nice things for you - whether it is fixing your dinner or smiling when they hand you your McNuggets. When people treat you well and they see you behaving like a gentleman in return, they will be proud to know their efforts haven't been lost on you.
