It seems that way, alot of it is parenting and TV I believe. I've seen parents laugh off something inappropriate a child has said, and may apologize for them, but don't talk to them about what they said (right then and there anyways) and then don't tell them that they owe an apology. Or they allow their children to say whatever at home and seem shocked they said something in public.
The adults that have asked when I was due, or if I was pregnant, seemed more embarrassed for themselves then for me when I tell them I'm not. Sigh, I do get an apology at least, sometimes snickered, but you take what you can get.
