Follow what I say, Don't follow what I do...

We teach our children good values. We let them learn polite ways of doing and saying things. But sometimes, we don't do what we teach them. i got a two years and six months son. Every time I see him, I can see how he does everything on his own, so right. I am sometimes worried. I taught him to return everything he touches or uses in the right place. And he always does. Here, what I see in him now is that he became possessive-compulsive. He cries when someone touches our belongings, everything! One day, he reached for something on the table. Accidentally, he'd caused his empty feeding bottle to fall on the floor. He immediately pick it up and carefully put it in the right place and in the exact position! He didn't even leave the table until he had satisfyingly put the thing back in its place. Sometimes I'm thinking if I've taught him so much. Do you have any experience or experiences similar to mine?
