A member asked:

When will my baby be able to say "please" and "thank you?"

Mid teen months: Your baby starts having s multiple word vocabulary by 18 months of age. By introducing your child to polite words right from birth, and using them with your baby, he/she can incorporate those words into their daily life. Please may come out as "pees", but its the thought behind the word that will child will learn, and they will grow up with mannerly words.

Depends: From my own children i can tell you that my teenager still has problems with this. All i can tell you is keep reinforcing basic manners, and hope that they stick.
