 Generation Gap

Everyday interactions lost some of their civility in the sixties.  Young people in the anti-war movement not only opposed the political power structure, but also rejected their parents' traditional social code.  To them, "good manners" seemed hypocritical and insincere.  The sixties generation therefore threw out the rules of politeness that straightjacketed their interactions, and instead tried to create more authentic relationships by expressing their true feelings all the time.
When this generation had children themselves, they brought this ethic into their parenting.  Sixties generation parents encouraged their kids to "express themselves," and they tolerated shows of bad manners in public as "natural."  While they hoped that encouraging self-expression would help their children grow up with more self-esteem, it sometimes turned out that the children felt more awkward in social situations because they didn't know how to act.
