I'm talking about basic manners that a kid should know, and the mother is oblivious to its teachings.

Yes, but I hold my tongue and just go about my own business.

I've thought about it to myself, yeah, but would I tell them how to raise their children? No. I figure most of the time they're doing the best they can. When I have kids someday, I don't want others TELLING me how to raise my kids, although I wouldn't mind suggestions here and there on how to approach certain situations.
I've seen this with my older sisters. My oldest sister sent a parenting book to one of my other sisters because she felt she wasn't raising her children right because she works FULLTIME and isn't a full time mother. That's bologna. I agree a parent should spend as much time as possible with their children, this is true...But in this day in age, both parents usually work.

I could feel that but I hardly ever act on this feeling.
Although I guess it has its merits. I once witnessed two events during a day when a stranger did that - and both times, the parents actually thanked the person! It happened in Inverness, Scotland. I thought it was amazing.

There is this kid that I knew at my school who was a spoiled brat and he would act immature all the time. I always got sick of it as I went into high school with him. He would still act immature.

Yes, but she probably would not get it, she probably does not understand manners, which is why she did not teach them to her son.

Yes, to many times, but I just figured she was not taught them and really would not be polite enough to listen to me.

yep. I have a friend whose son never says please and thank you when talking to her and she doesn't seem to notice. He doesn't use it with other people either and then she wonders why they think he's a spoiled brat.

Not since I realized that it is not my job to control the universe.
