Manners in America Are Dead: 95 Quick & Powerful Tips to Win People Over with the Power of Politeness

By Sonya Chapman

At some point in the last 40 years, American life changed. Families used to eat dinner together, play board games together, and watch their favorite TV shows together. However, in today's technology-driven, always-on-the-go society, most American families have changed how they spend time together and how they communicate with others. That's why I fear manners in America are dead. Trust, respect, and communication skills used to be taught in the home. Families used to value their relationships and always offered a helping hand when needed. Nowadays things are different, and the shift is the reason I had to write this book Now, this book is not about being stuffy or giving you rules to follow. There are plenty of books today that serve that purpose. Instead, this book is about simple ways to treat people and the power that politeness plays in our everyday interactions with family members, friends, neighbors, and co-workers. Inside, you'll discover 13 easy-to-read chapters with 95 easy-to-follow tips on how you can be courteous and make others around you feel respected, appreciated, and comfortable in any situation. Manners are not just about rules or actions. Manners are about your attitude toward yourself and others. This book will help you treat yourself better and help you treat others with more respect and kindness. And, in turn, this book will help you go further in life. Judge Clarence Thomas says it best: "Good manners will open doors the best education can't."
