Have we evolved into a narcissistic society, as the media have alleged? Do you think the importance of manners and etiquette is less essential? If you live in a country or regional area, is there more of a community spirit and comrade in your district? I really would love to hear your opinions on this issue so please do share your thoughts.

Society like mankind has evolved and will continue to do so until we become extinct. We would not have survived without evolving. The planet is evolving and so is mankind whilst not all evolution traits are for the good of the planet I do believe evolution is a good thing Animals evolve all the time and this is through the survival of the fittest. If you look at a incarseration system you will find that it works the same way, It is those who act the meanest and nastiest who run the system. Manners and etiquette have suffered the most in the process. When I was in school we had great respect for teachers and they were all known as Miss or Mister. Today more and more schools use the teachers first name so as to not appear to be standing over the pupils. I feel this is so wrong as we are letting the pupils down by not teaching them respect for others.
