Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? In a busy and crowded world, we should not expect people to be polite to others.
As for people, communication is of paramount importance. Nevertheless, in the process of communication, conflicts and disagreements are unavoidable. The issue that whether should we expect people to be polite to others is being put under limelight recently. Opinions vary from person to person. Some people argue that it matters a lot for today people to expect other people to be polite. From my point of view, in this day and age, we should not expect people to be polite to other. The basis for my conclusion are mainly two aspect respectively: the heavy stress that today people are confronted with and the burden that expectation put on us.
To begin with, nowadays people with heavy stress and workloads may easily lose their temper, thus behaving a impolite manner towards other people. To be concise, the market in the current society is very intense. Not only are adults facing an overwhelming amount of works, but also students have a bunch of school task to be finished even after school. Under this circumstance, people may hardly find a time to relax, causing their emotion easily get out of control. It’s rational to allow some impolite manners for the reason that we also have the same issue if we are put under such environment. Thus the reality about stress shed light on the reasonable conclusion that it’s unwise to expect other people to be polite.
In the second place, expectation may also pose a potential danger to ourselves. In other words, if other people can’t behavior decent, we tends to be disappointed and feel frustrated. This expectation is counting on other people. However, the truth is that we can’t control other people’s behavior no matter how hardly we try. What’s worse, if we indulge in this dissatisfaction for a long period time, we may also easily get angry, posing an attack manner to other people. Thus the best way to solve this problem is that we should not expect people to pose an polite manner.
In view of aforementioned, taking the stress that people are facing and unwilling outcomes that expectation may brings, I strongly hold the view that we should not expect people to be polite to others in this busy and crowded world.
