Many years ago, children who had good manners kept quiet if their parents were talking with other
persons. Today, well-mannered children have more freedom.
Sometimes good manners in one place are bad manners in other place.
Suppose you are a visitor in the land of Mongolia. Some friends ask you to eat with them. What kind of manners do they want you to have? They want you to give a loud "burp (打嗝)" after you finish eating.
Burping will show that you like your food. In some countries, if you give a loud burp, you are told to say, "Excuse me, please."
In many places people like to eat together. But in some parts of Polynesia, it is bad manners to be seen eating at all. People show their good manners by turning their backs on others while they eat.
What are good manners like in an East Africa town? The people try not to see you. They are being
polite. You may see a friend. He may not see you at all. If you’re polite, you will sit down beside him. You will wait until he finishes what he doing. Then he will talk to you.
