Who is teaching you manners?
"My teacher is kind of teaching us them. If we want to go to the bathroom, we always have to say, 'Can we please go to the bathroom?' And if we don't say please, she acts like she can't hear us."

"Yeah, they (teachers) do. If we are putting our feet on top of the table, they say, 'Don't put your feet on the table, because it's bad manners.' If we don't sit in the chair right, like if we slouch, they say we are going to have a bump on our back when we grow up."
