I dress mostly the same for all my usual activities. I dress the same when I'm with friends, family, and coworkers. The only real difference in my attire is when I go to church, or a funeral, or a really fancy place. Then I don't wear jeans, I'll usually wear nice black pants and a dress shirt at one of these places. I am myself with everyone. Sure I'm a little more well behaved when I'm out with my parents or grandparents then with my friends, but other than that I usually act the same. I am very respectful when around adults that are intelligent and show me the same respect. I don't think it's hypocritical or false to make such changes. I can be more relaxed in my dress and the way I speak when I am with my friends, who are my age. When I am among adults I tend to be more quiet and mindful of what I say. I think it shows respect to my elders to be dressed appropriately and speak without using slang. I am always careful when I am with my grandparents not to use slang. They grew up talking a certain way and I think it shows respect to talk properly. When I say "talk properly" I mean speaking clearly, enunciating, and using proper english grammar. I also try not to use words that my grandparents don't use and use the ones they do. As I have said it is not false, it shows my respect for the ones I am around. //
