The other day while babysitting my Grandson told me his friend across the street had the day before had a birthmark removed so she couldn't come out and play. I suggested he get out construction paper and make her a card and take it to her. Certainly this was no life changing experience, but the seed was planted. We live in a pretty unthankful society. Have you ever noticed how many gifts you've given without a note of thanks ever being sent. I'm not suggesting that we quit giving, but we can make a difference by teaching our own children to write thank you notes and send cards at a young age. Let them make little gifts and crafts for others.

You are so right! I agree with everything you have said. You are a smart lady and your grandson is lucky to have you.
I agree with you whole heartedly. I've tried to teach my nieces and nephews to be thoughtful in little ways. Ever since my one niece was two, she'd always want to put something in the Salvation Army buckets at Christmas, and she'd wrap up her own toys to give to others!
