Which kind of civilized are you thinking of, the eats-with-the-right-fork-pip-pip civilized, or the generally-good-for-society-good-bloke civilized? (Or maybe the reads-writes-speaks civilized?)

This One

Their mums.

The ability to take other people's feelings into consideration.
To be able to deal with explosive/uncomfortable situations without losing respect for oneself and others.

The ability to use teh interweb.

Something I've yet to learn.
