Good polish is important later in life, when a child grows up and enters the real world. A child could have had all the love he/she could get, but that love doesn't prepare them for the real world, where "knowing what to do" and "how to do it" is very important. Why else do they have etiquette consultants present seminars in the workplace and to graduating seniors in universities (well, they did at my school, anyway)? They didn't have to do that in the past, because kids WERE polished.
