What is the Golden Rule?
Correct answer: A moral maxim or principle of altruism

I think it's really sad that most of today's generation have no clue about manners, not all but most

Hey I'm a new generation kid and I live by this rule!

GrandmaTanya, I think it' sad that today's generation has no clue about LIFE. You lose the most valuable learning tool of all when you never take the blame for your own mistakes.

Unfortunately, far too many " Do unto others, then run like hell." (Politicians on both sides of the aisles included.)

KILLean17, Have you seen TV lately? The Disney Channel is the worst. Showing children how to scream at their parents, sneaking out of the house, lying to parents, I could go on and on.

I have been taken advantage of so many times for believing in this rule, I started hating it. At some point I even considered not following it anymore. A chat with my mom made me reconsider. What I did instead was to stop expecting the same from others. I treat others the way I wish to be treated, and expect nothing. Spares me a lot of disappointment, let me tell you!

I've always carried this with me and held it in high regard, also instill it in my kids! My daughter loves to hear this and makes her feel good after!

Predates the bible by a long way. There's also the silver rule - don't do anything to people you wouldn't want done to you which seems even more fundamental.

Lizabeth64, Poor Mr Disney, if only he knew what damage would be done by those who took control of his enterprise . He would be shocked.

GrandmaTanya, as someone who works with the public i can assure you that the younger generations are on average by far the most polite

Lizabeth64, You can add, "spare the rod, spoil the child." Vast difference between punishment and abuse.
Swampy Acres
Lizabeth64, totally agree. parents fault for not teaching it to their youngsters.

moonlit, most schools teach children many things that should be taught at home but unfortunately alot of woman have a baby and in a couple of weeks she's back at work having someone else raise them.

Birdiemom, taking 'Responsibility' for one's own actions is not self evident anymore!

my Dad taught us this one early. Do unto others as you would want done unto you.

I raised my children with the golden rule at the core of our values. They are loving, kind, compassionate self- sufficient young adults now. I like to think the countless reminders to "remember the golden rule" played a part in who they are.

Redeemed 2001, students and school employees can take their Bibles to school. A school employee just can't lead a lesson from it or insist that students read it. NEVER allow anyone to tell you that you can't have one. My grandson, who just graduated from public school. took his New Testament with him each day, each year, and read it during free time. Though he couldn't initiate the conversation if anyone asked he could share the gospel with them.

Highschool Jim, Very true! Brought up as a spoiled, silver spoon in mouth rich kid who obviuosly believes he should face zero consequences for his bad actions. One day, karma will catch up to him.
