Do children of nawadays still go to there parent, mum in particular to say 'thank you' after each meal? Cos i rememba here those days in d north, children did that...i dnt knw abt now

Don't tell my parents thank you,then you will know how far

We still do @ home but when guests are present, they are like 'what the... was that?'

Lol I still say "thank you" to whoever gives me food after eating. Not limited to just my parents or family, but friends as well. Some people really get angry over this though and I have never understood why.

I stil do even to my mother in law, bt most times she wil laugh at me cos they ar nt used to it.

can u kindly post hw u say it pls? Asin do u say thanks mum for d meal or jst thanks mum

We actually say ''thank u sir, God bless u sir, God will provide for u sir'' all in one breath. Those are the words mum taught us to say to dad after each meal or any other goodies given to us. When guests are present, or when we go visiting and we repeat thesame to our hosts, there's always this funny look on their faces. so we stop @ thank u sir/ma to show appreciation to outsiders, but the ''God bless u sir/ma, God will provide for u sir/ma is reserved exclusively for our parents.

So reciting a mantra of thanks after each meal is good upbringing.

I'm just messing with you.

mine kids say ''thank you'' but only after a special meal, not after each meal.

We grew up saying thank you after every ,meal.......I think I ll let my kids continue the tradition

In my house you can say thank you Sir/ma or you chant their title names.

My husband and kids do so thanks after each meal,i also deliver the thanks when I eat in someone else's house.

Yes

THANK YOU MY FOOT. It is the duty of parents to provide food for their children. If you can't feed a child, don't bring one to the world.

If some say and some don't say, outsiders should butt out.

I still do that not only at home bt when I visit my friends. It shows you are grateful. Some people dön't even have that privilege

Never have.

Of course I do, When she shows me my portion.

My kids do say so (thank you) in my native language.

I also say thank you to me spouse (sometimes)
