Cautiously dipping a toe in here...

If you're such a Miss Manners on GC, why the need for a "fresh slate"?

And, I believe honesty would fall under "social graces". So if you want to blow sunshine up her ass because you think it's the "ladylike" thing to do, go ahead. I'll just keep tellin' it like it is.

I've got two (and no more). The youngest is 5 months. The oldest is 2 1/2, she says please, thank you, no thank you, bless you, etc., and corrects those who don't. She also tells it like it is.
