Why is it more important to train your kids to say thank you, than to train them to do chessed without expecting a thank you, by example?

I don’t believe I said that one was more important than the other.

Nonetheless, my kids are teens, not adults. I don’t know that they yet possess the maturity to be able to fully do a chessed with acknowledgment without being resentful about it.

Eventually they’ll get there.
