RE: Subtle Grounding

As a child, I wondered why we were asked to do some things in certain ways, it didn't make sense at all: until grew older.

Some of these things like greetings, doing chores, taking care of somethings in the house and other laws like, you don't look straight into an older person's eyes, you don't take from strangers, don't fight even if you were right, don't argue with older people, they are always right.....used to be very annoying. But now, I realized that it was the only way to install some sort of respect and moral values in us, it was more in our favour: like you said it makes people like us more and want to be kind all because we are respectful kids. I've enjoyed the benefits of being respectful countless times.
