Being the target of rude behavior, or even simply witnessing rude behavior, induces rudeness.

Rudeness is contagious and violence brings about violence. The worst example is child abuse.  It is  very sad to observe that most abused children (Not all of them) also abuse their own children or have personality disorders.  It it is important to find a way to break that tragic circle.
I like the idea of resilience
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_resilience

Psychological resilience is defined as an individual's ability to properly adapt to stress and adversity
