Another true story ~
My grandson attends Junior Assembly and is learning all about best manners, i.e. how to ask a girl to dance, how to dance, etc.
On the drive home after the "formal dinner" ~ when my daughter and I asked how it went.....here's his answer:
"Well, we learned to pull the chair out for the girls to be seated first, we learned how to use our napkin and we learned where the "tensils" go and when to use each "tensil."
We were a bit confused and very interested in hearing more....(things ARE a bit different these days so you never know).....so we kept asking questions. Trying his best to explain, he finally said,
"YOU KNOW.....YOU TENSILS....WHERE TO PUT YOU TENSILS AND WHICH TENSILS to use with which food, like salad, your meal, dessert!"
Perhaps they should learn to spell and pronounce the words along with how to use them? Do you know how to use "U-TENSILS?" I'm just saying'
I am reminded that "communication" is a two way street......listening to what others say and listening to what I say to others"
