Week 5 Prompt 6

“Please Read This Story, Thank You” by Linton Weeks

Linton Weeks believes that newly developing world has taken no interest in is using proper etiquette and manners. I disagree, because the new world  has changed the meanings of words and the style of presentation.

For a place to develop, it has to change, for change to occur ancient practises need to be forgotten, and new forms of art need to be accepted. The generation gap that exist the young and the old is big hole. The IT explosions around the world cause the change. The young changed fast with it while the elders moved on slow. Linton Weeks believes that that old is gold. Just because a person displays appreciation in a different form, which does not mean that the person actions are unworthy. The language has also changed, slang words are often substituted for the actual terms, ways or methods of addressing someone have all also changed. The younger generation is always looking for easier ways, to get the job done, use of slang words and different methods of interaction are considered improper. Our generation likes changes, and since we have the power to change the world, we have the power to changes everything. People cannot judge as improper or having no manners, because we are different, change is necessary. People cannot always live in shadow of other who think "old is gold." Everyone has different ways of expressing delight or appreciation. Their actions will be different, more common to those of his generation. How can the author say that the person does not have etiquette, because he is young. Young people hated when they are compared and asked to be more like their parents.Linton Weeks is discriminating the younger generations because we lack the old school methods of her generation.
