My main issue is with your use of the phrase "basic manners". This isn't a question of manners. It's like speaking Spanish in a French bakery: it's not rude, it's just not the right context. Similarly if you start vouvoyer your child, it's not "bad manners" it's just not done. |

Children are taught not to say "ouais", or not to say 'tu' to adult they don't know, etc. because it is bad manners to.
If I'm asked if I want my baguette on the more crunchy side and I reply "ouais" this is bad manners.
