My brother's 12 yo daughter is staying with me for 12 days while they're on vacation. She goes home tomorrow and in the time I've been looking after her, she hasn't said please or thank you one single time.
Would you like another piece of toast? "Yes."
Here's the glass of juice you asked for. No response.
My kids say please and thank you to EACH OTHER, even when they don't know I'm listening and this girl doesn't say it even to us. We went to a restaurant and she didn't say either phrase.
Now, she ain't my kid so I haven't really said anything to her about this. But I wonder if I should mention it to her parents. What are my responsibilities here, or do I have any at all?
