National Etiquette Week is May 11 - 15

   May 11 - 15 is National Etiquette Week. Think your kids have a thing or two to learn on the topic? You are probably right according to Etiquette Expert Wynne Dalley.

   She offers several simple but key pieces of advice for young people in her books, "Be Cool and Confident: A Guide for Girls" and "Be Cool and Confident: A Guide for Guys."

   1) Remember to sit up straight - you will look more attractive.

   2) Table manners are extremely important. Eat slowly, make conversation, and never wave your knife and fork around while speaking.

   3) After receiving a gift, always send a hand-written thank you note.

   Dalley’s books also offer advice on good hygiene, nutrition, dress, and cell phone etiquette in public places.

   “I truly believe if young people learn and practice the rules of etiquette when they are young, it will carry over to their adult lives and become second nature,” Dalley says.

RMA Publicity Booked Three Interviews in May for "The Team Building Expert," Dr. Rick Goodman

   Mother's Day is Sunday (May 10), and "The Team Building Expert," Dr. Rick Goodman, appeared on WPEC-TV in West Palm Beach, Fla., on May 7 to share a great gift idea kids can give to their mothers.  "The best gift of all is for the kids to put down their smartphones and tablets and spend time with their moms," he says. 

   Dr. Rick learned how valuable connecting without the distraction of technology can be a few years ago when he took his then 16-year-old daughter on a 24-day trip to Europe with a major ground rule. No technology would be brought along.
