Hey, yβall! Iβm new to the group and I have a question, I grew up and live in the south. Yes maβam, yes sir etc. have always been big. I am raising my kids to speak with the respectful mannerisms that I was taught. Is this wrong of me, to expect it from them? They don't get in trouble when they donβt use their manners, I just, kindly, correct them. And they follow suit and use their manners.
