Some people may feel this should be for children only... But I've seen adults failing at this... Hence the need for this post.

Respect is a way of treating or thinking about something or someone. Good manners are necessary to show respect for others.

Greetings
Say greetings when you meet someone. Say goodbye when you leave them.

Please/Thank you
