That is indeed what I am asking. I am a 41 yo male and my mom seems to feel its her place to correct me in front of others. I feel this is tacky and would never consider emabarrasing others by telling of ones faux pas.

Also, my hat was part of my outfit I was wearing. We were in a casual setting. Lildutchboi 4 months ago .

Funny this should come up today, because in aout 2½ hours I am going to be telling 40 or so firefighters to take off their hats indoors. And the point I was making is that she considers it tacky to wear a hat while eating; so you're even.

It's really not their place to say unless it is a requirement (like some places require a jacket and tie). If someone in your group told you it was proper etiquette to remove your hat indoors, they were probably trying to help, thinking you didn't know that is proper. I am assuming you are male; females are not expected to remove hats unless they so desire.

Also, nowadays, in casual settings, a lot of people - both genders - wear baseball caps. Many of life's "settings" have gotten a lot more casual. When I was a child (I'm 56), a lady didn't go out on the street, so to speak, without gloves and a hat.

That's one of my pet peeves, men who wear hats indoor, I was raised that it is bad etiquette. Its not raining inside, why do you have to wear your hat? Sadly etiquette is rarely taught, along with manners these days .

Frankly I can't stand seeing men wearing hats while eating in a restaurant. Maybe this person was just trying to tell you how classless it looks. If they told you in a quiet way, without making a loud production about it, I see nothing wrong with the person telling you.

At 41, you SHOULD already be AWARE that MOST older adults find wearing hats while eating VERY rude. AND, you already know your Mother will correct you, so I'm puzzled as to why you haven't caught on to what bugs her yet. I doubt she LIKES reminding you, but when you act like a child, she will act like a Mother.

Time to grow up and learn some manners.

Thanks for your imput, however, I do not usually wear hats, this one time was because it went with my outfit. Hats are very common here in the desert as the sun can brutal on your head and face. As for me acting like a child, that needs to be corrected, by a mother who nows wants to parent, she had her chance 30 years ago and chose not too.So at this point there is no need to to try and be a mother now.

And as for what bugs her I have no idea in the past 22 yrs I've only been around her a hand full of times until recently when she moved close to where I live. Lildutchboi 2 months ago .

If your were at the Ihop etiquette isn't an issue.

If in a restaurant, to that restaurant's management is the responsibility for correcting etiquette . . And no one else.

No...just let it go and be a good model. No one is a mom to another adult.

Your mom may not want to lose you as their child...still want to feel she is needed...has a purpose. Her correcting you is not good manners...even if she is trying to correct your manners. Just ask her privately to stop commenting.

Well, may they were objecting to your wearing a hat during dinner. There are times when it's proper to remove a hat, like the movies.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
