I agree with you on this. I think that the problem is that there are those bratty kids, and they stand out more than the well behaved ones, giving all kids a bad name.

I will say that when I visit family in the south, I do notice more manners. Kids say sir and mam and are taught manners in school. Some of it is nice to see...but they call their parents sir and mam too. I don't think I would want that for my kids, to that extent.
