Manners are unwritten rules of people’s behaviors. Manners shows respect for others. We don’t want to have dinner with people who eat loudly or talk with their mouth full of food. We cannot enjoy a movie when the children sitting behind us are kicking the seats all the time. Those will make us feel terrible. With good manners, the world will become a more pleasant place to live, so manners are important for everyone.
