Manners Matter: Acknowledge adults

This week's manner is "Acknowledge Adults." 

It might seem easier to avoid your friend's parents, or let mom do the talking in social situations with adults. But you show kindness and maturity when you acknowledge people -- including adults. A simple "Thanks for letting me come over" goes a long way.
