Teaching Respect

I am in the process of writing curriculm for children along with their parents regarding basic manners and common courtesy.  I am basing this teaching on respect which I believe is lacking in children and teens.  My goal is to teach self esteem and confidence by being able to express opinions without judgements and to listen to others with interest and respect. 

 I would appreciate input and opinions as I build my workshops.

Over what?

Well I found temporary work at the state fair. Not a great job, but any job is better than no job. Well thats be over for a week now and I am still looking for work. I just don't understand some places ,telling me I am over qualified. I looked at one lady and told her What? Over qualified? " I don't have any job and I can't pay the bills, I can't be over qualified I need money ,that should make me a perfect match." She then said I wouldn't be satisfied with the pay or the job duty's.  I then laughed and turned and walked out she didn't hear a thing I had said. Maybe I am speaking a different language and I dont know it.  Of  course she was about 20 years old and had know idea what starving means. To her it would be like not being able to have a starbucks. Which then she could run to daddy and he would give it to her. How do I know that ? I was that girl at one time. Sad but true. I was self centered and had money. Daddy's money!  Anytime something went wrong he would pick up the pieces and I would move on. Then I got an eye opener and this where I am today.  Not so self centered,I know what it means to go to bed hungery, and I know what self sacrifice is. And some sacrifice more than others to keep themselves and others from lossing it all.

Speaking of lossing it !!! 

 All I really know right now is that I am on the verge of wigging out, lossing my mind, as some people might say going postal. I seem to be banging my head on a brick wall. The nuber one thing that has been making me nuts is " Men if you see a woman walking down the road don't slow down ak how much. "We aren't all hookers!" It could be your wife, kids mom or your mom and would you like someone talking to them like that?.  I think not ! So please learn some manners and don't insult us.
