Question Say please!

How do you encourage good manners in your kids - bribery, threats or patient encouragement?!

Some of our moms have spilled the beans, so share your story here and we'll add it to our article.

Look forward to reading

We use ourselves as examples to teach our children I say please and thank you quite often and my kids tend to follow example if they forget we just give them a gentle reminder. I don't expect my children to do something I wouldn't do so if I want them to say it I feel I need to say it too.

My parents used to spank me just to get me to have good manners, (Trust me, it did not work) They should reward your child for good manners, they watch the older kids for to look up to and be what they are, I am a good role model for children! I love kids so much! Teaching them manners is the easy part for me!
