Respect
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
.
Respect is an attitude of acknowledging the feelings and interests of another party in a relationship, and of treating as consequential for the self the helping or harming of the other. Though most commonly referring to interpersonal relationships, it can be used between animals, groups and institutions including countries. Respect does not necessarily imply deference, but a respectful attitude rules out unconsidered selfish behaviour. The concept of respect predates, and does not rely on, the existence of the concept of rights.
Respect is sometimes loosely used as a synonym for politeness or manners, though these are behaviours, whereas respect is an attitude. Intercultural differences in behaviours, self-perception and outward appearance may result in the unintentional appearance of disrespect.
Many movements have at different times claimed respect as the core element, including raver-culture, Islam and the United States Marine Corps.

Respect is treating people the way you want to be treated and also to treat people with high esteem and regard. For example an older person who is wise and knowledgeable. Your parents, your co-workers, Your teacher, preacher, etc.. Kids today their version of Respect is you get it from being violent, with a gun, intimidation, acting like a thug or just stupid, etc....That is not respect. Respect is something that is earned from hard-work, your integrity, your life's experience, your being.

It is a way to be treated, with courtesy and decency, it is how one should treat others, regardless of how they are treated.
