Little Manners

My friend Lizzie sent me this article from the NYTimes Health section.  A pediatrician, Dr. Perri Klass, discusses how many children are ill-mannered, their parents neglecting to inform them that the world actually does NOT revolve around them.  It is unfortunate that a parent would allow their child to enter the world lacking good manners.  These children become the adults who cut in line, hold the subway doors open, keeping a full train at a station for them, do not hold doors open, interrupt others, are disrespectful to waitstaff and other offenses that we have to endure day after day.

Many of these adults are at the Sundance Film festival! Cutting in line at movie screenings, shouting at film festival volunteers when they don't get what they want and acting so cool walking around Park City for no reason. HOW RUDE!
