I honestly don't think that they're being rude. Some kids today have very poor social skills, they're latch key kids who came home from school and played video games or visited chat rooms. I think that for the most part, they really don't know that they should respond, they grew up without anyone around to respond to. And they are painfully shy. Of course some are a-holes just like adults.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
