13 People Discuss Clear Signs That Someone Wasn’t Raised Right
When you have kids, your main goal is probably to raise them to be the best human being they can be. You know—always holding the door for someone, using basic manners like please and thank you, and just generally being a good, fun person.
But that’s sometimes that’s easier said than done. And when someone isn’t raised quite right, there can be some telltale signs.
In one recent Reddit thread, people went off about how to tell when someone wasn’t raised properly. Here are the top responses.
