We learned patience and consideration. (Civility) We were painfully FAIR. No entitlements; no matter what your make-up status, when someone needed the bathroom and you weren't naked, you were politely asked to step out for a bit. And if I wasn't naked, I was willing to do that. Sometime later in life, I was at a home where one person was tying up the bathroom, primping while the rest of the family griped. I asked, "Why don't you just politely and quietly ask her to step out? I think you like to complain." Neither patience nor consideration were being practiced.
