it's all about educating your kids from a young age.

Today a I had a missed call. I called back and this woman answered with

Haaa?

I said Yes hello.

She said, wrong wrong (referring to the number).

I said, the only thing wrong with this conversation is your manners. I hung up.

Now SHE called me, and she sounded like an older woman. Hope she doesn't teach her kids to be that rude.

I'm not surprised. I've been in a few homes where things are just dropped on the floor and it is the maid's job to pick it up. Pathetic and ignorant.

you would think the bins available places around Doha mean "do not litter" but i guess for some people its a habit. Ive seen this in the playgrounds at the corniche where people throw litter on the ground right next to a bin, very inconsiderate...My two year old knows not to throw rubbish on the floor, it not difficult to do...

There was an television ad published by the government for awareness towards litering in India... The ads were really cool. It showed a family on vaccation visiting places all over india and them littering all the placess with food and other wastes and peeing on walls etc. Then they come back home after the vaccation and see that all the things they've dumped have been actually dumped in their house and the punch line was if u think its dirty to dump waste in ur house how come u dont care abt the roads and public places or somethin like that... bottom line dont litter use the dustbin types!

Yes, I also noticed that bad practice of some...maybe you can just put a small trash can in your car.

if they have not been taught this as a child i am sure as an adult they do have some brains to think with or unless they are simply brainless

hmmm fr what i gather that is very difficult for some , now i wonder if they do the same thing in their homes , if they dont and they only litter public areas then i say they should be fined or have to do community work for a certain period of time. i suggest give them a trash bag and go collect all the garbage lets say along the corniche and see if they will ever litter again........

It's really hard if someone has not been taught manners as a child! And a lot of people here have not.
