'Becoming Civilized #101'



First Grade Primer: #1. To always pay your debts on time (responsibility/meeting deadlines). #2. To not welsh on obligations (keeping your word). #3. To never hurt your friends (thoughtfulness). #4. To never kiss and tell (respect for the selfhood and privacy of others). #5. To obey the 11th Commandment which is thou shalt not kid thyself (commonsense). #6. To think 'please' and 'thank you' (manners).
