Etiquette is alive and flourishing!
As the song goes “the fundamental things apply”. They certainly do.
The rules of etiquette and protocol have been around for centuries, and they are as important today as ever before.
But…what exactly is “etiquette”?
In polite society “etiquette” it is the acceptable behavior governed by a code of conduct or practices applied to varying situations.
What is “protocol”?
Protocol is the proper and correct form of courtesies in formal dealings.
While social norms of “acceptable” behavior may vary depending on cultural differences, there are universal guidelines.
As part of social development, it is important for children to be taught proper etiquette to help enhance their social development. This should be part of their curriculum.
I must emphasize, however, it is never too late to begin this genteel education at any age.
Hurray For Etiquette!!!
