Haven't I taught you anything!

Watch your manners!

Sound Familiar

Some would say, "What's the big deal!" In fact, there is a very big fast food (hamburger) chain that brags about how messy and gross people are when eating their food? Whats that all about? Just because they enjoy eating like a pig, doesn't mean the rest of us enjoy watching them while they do so.

Ever been lectured on your public behavior in private? Or how about a public lecture on your private behavior? Are you guilty of doing something that just about drives your mom, dad, brother or sister insane. Maybe you're the one that goes crazy when little brother is gross and chews with his mouth open at the dinner table.

If any of the above topics apply to you and your life, then this writing prompt can help you clear the air. They say just talking about your problems can help you feel better about them. So, how about a little writing therapy session.
