It's just basic civil behaviour

That sadly, many choose not to do.:-(

It's probably bad parenting, but I tell my daughter that people who litter are bad people. I can probably put it better, but she's young, simple is good, and so litterers=bad people. I honestly think that to essentially be true, because if you litter, you've essentially internally rationalized your entitlement to make your shit someone else's problem. Right there with people who don't put their carts back.

That being said, I do also say to her that sometimes the wind will carry trash from a receptacle, and that sometimes folks have difficulty ambulating, and so there are exceptions.

I mean shit, maybe hold off on the concept of “bad people”? I get simpler is better but teaching “it is routine and normal for us to categorize lots of people into the category of ‘bad people’” is forming a pretty significant building block in her philosophy.

Unless you’re doing some kind of jesus thing where bad people can still be friends or neighbors because being bad doesn’t mean being worthless or something like that. But that’s pretty complicated too.
