Solution

Grown-ups say the kind of things mentioned in the poem because they want their children to learn good manners and how to behave in public. It might seem like constant nagging to the kid as he/she does not care about manners or hygiene. However, it is necessary for the parents to teach him/her good manners for his/her own benefits. Actions such as picking nose, pointing or staring at someone, making noises, and dragging the feet are all bad manners. If parents would not teach the child good manners, then the child would not turn into a good and respectable person. Etiquettes such as saying thank you or sorry are part of a good behaviour and it reflects on the personality of that person. Therefore, it is very important for parents to teach their children good manners and behaviour. However, they can achieve their objective of inculcating good manners in their children in a more understanding and loving way so that it does not turn into nagging.
