And at it's kernel is how we perceive and interact with each other. I believe that ones core values are ingrained in the home. When I was a child, my siblings and I were instructed to always offer our seats to an adult if there was no other seat available. That was how it was. Over the years I discarded many of my parents views that did not reflect my thinking but those core values never changed. From my wife's observations on the train, I can only conclude that children raised this century and at the end of the last century, were not given guidance on how to behave by their parents.

I find these "state of the youth of today" posts absolutely hilarious, because they're always posted by the people who are directly responsible for raising the youth of today.
Okay.
For the record, I never sit down on trains as the seats are disgusting so I avoid having to give up my seat

It's personal pride.
All this "society has changed", "People are under so much more pressure" etc is bollocks.
Manners cost nothing and only improve the quality of life of everyone.
Recently I have found that people are shocked if you smile at them (not in a creepy type of way!), you step aside to let them through and you get no acknowledgement, all the small things that were drummed into me as a kid seem to have gone by the wayside.
Yeah, it bothers me, but I will continue to do them as I would feel like I have failed if I were to stop. I feel as though I would have let my grandparents and parents down, the people who taught me to do the right thing.
