* Since the 1960's when it became 'free love, let it all hang out and everything goes' the moral function of the unity of family and social etiquette has dropped by a large percentage. It has become a 'me or whatever generation' and often children are not taught correct manners so they can meld into society more easily. All ages of people are too laid back when it comes to good etiquette, but the smart ones keep 'in the know' because one day they may need it if they are successful in a career and have meetings to go too or, if they are invited to a high social gathering. Good etiquette makes a person stand out. Today there is the internet so email cards or emails are taking the place of sending out personal cards or writing letters. Many people don't keep up with good social etiquette so when, for instance, a formal wedding comes up some guests take it for granted their friend will know they are coming to the wedding, but the proper etiquette is to answer the note inside stating you are coming and if you are bringing your mate or a date. There are so many avenues in society regarding good etiquette techniques to even begin to mention. One can be complacent and go about their lives with a 'me' attitude and expect others to second guess their intentions or, the very successful people make a point to know about good etiquette because it is still out there in varied circles of society.
