My Grandson is reading this also, he is 14 and asked to,I think even he finds something missing in todays manners (or lack of).
good guideline

It is an easy read with practical advise. This book basically uses examples to illustrate real life situation. For example, when kids are in the car and someone releases gas, come up with a code word (hers was safety) that alerts other of this uncomfortable situation. This book also talks about basic etiquette and how and when to illustrate it for your kids such as introduction or not correcting other peoples manners, etc. Buy either this or How to Raise A Lady. Don't buy them both, THEY ARE THE SAME BOOKS. One just uses her son for the example, the other her daughter.
