Practicing Etiquette at Home - Lesson Four

Message to the Parents

Please encourage your children to practice their newly acquired social etiquette skills through the following activities:

• Demonstrate Positive Behaviors:

Show your teen examples of positive behaviors through your own actions. They learn best by observing, so let them see you model grace and respect in various situations.

• Share Personal Stories:

Share moments when you made a positive impression or learned from a mistake. Hearing real-life examples will help them understand the impact of etiquette and how to handle setbacks with confidence.

• Your child is going out:

When your child is heading out, compliment their attire if they’ve dressed well and appropriately. Let them know how much a positive image contributes to their impression on others and reinforces their self-confidence.

• Your child is doing good deeds or being attentive to others:

Whenever your child shows kindness or attentiveness, acknowledge and praise their thoughtfulness. Reinforce these positive actions by encouraging them to continue acting kindly and considerately in their interactions.

Dining etiquette:

We also touched on dining etiquette as we enjoyed tea and cookies. I consistently reinforce and guide them on essential aspects of dining with grace and proper manners. If you would like to enroll your child in a dining class, please let me know.
