Is politeness something we humans need to be taught?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46815points) August 18th, 2013

We have to constantly tell our kids not to “take,” not to hit, not to barge in front of people, say please. I think it’s an instinct to do all of those things, to put yourself first, but if we weren’t taught that it hurts others, if our parents/society never taught us that, would we ever figure it out on our own?
