    I don't hear "please" and "thank you" as often as I did when I was a child. "Sir" and "Ma'am" seems to be fading out as well.


    As a northerner that moved to Alabama, I had the hardest time getting used to people calling me ma'am. Now when my kids answer me, they say yes, ma'am, and I kind of love it.
