I believe that it is still extremely important to have decent manners. It seems to me that there is no doubt that people are not as well mannered as they have been in the past. As an older person I really do notice the difference from what things were like when I was younger. It must, however, be said that everyone my husband and I meet is invariably kind and good-mannered to us, and for that I am grateful. I live on a semi-rural area very close to the largest shopping centre in Queensland. We frequently go there and always find ourselves treated well by everyone. The restaurant at which we eat a couple of times each week is staffed by mostly young kids except for the managers. They all know us, greet us by name and often stop for a chat when things are quiet.. I feel as though to suggest that society is narcissistic is wrong. When I was young, some were narcissistic, some not. I suspect that most people treat you in the same way that you treat them.
