A new study has revealed that 1 in 5 Brits will not tip for anything, anywhere. Only 1 in 8 say they will always leave a tip in a restaurant.

Is this a reflection of a healthy attitude to service in society?

Meanwhile, many teachers receive "tips" in the form of gifts from children (or parents) at the end of the year. Is this healthy, or does it encourage in children a skewed sense of what gratitude is?

Mal Fletcher answered these and other questions in an interview this morning with BBC Radio's Mike Parr.
