Respecting Elders

I have always admired the senior citizens who are wondering how they have passed such long journeys of their lives. They not only have accomplished achievements, but also have done memorable works that deserve admiration, respect, and priority in today’s society. These old people may look incompetent and unexciting in somebody’s eyes and thoughts, but not everyone realizes that they are the people with greatest knowledge and experiences beyond their masters of life. From my own experience, whenever I see an old mister or mistress looking for help or in need of help, I can never ignore him or

It is important to allow someone to know that you respect them. It will ease the conversation and create trust. Behavior and attitude will allow the person demanding respect to feel that respect. When we respect each other, there are fewer conflicts. People get along easier and avoid the unnecessary drama associated with a lack of respect.

In my family we value respect a good bit.When I was younger my mom made sure that I was a well mannered child.She would constantly remind me to say yes malm and thank you to people.My mom expects me to treat everyone with respect,even if

Everyone wants to be respected. It’s in our nature, but in order to obtain respect, first of all one has to respect oneself. Second, one has to show respect to others in order to gain respect from them. If one doesn’t show respect to someone, that person may often feel blown off and lose respect for you. Respect in my eyes is like a math equation loyalty plus duty equals respect. respect is gained in conducting ones self in a way that others can stand

* Respect. Respect each individual with the same respect as you would like to be respected.

Strengths of being respectful children never know when you’ll meet again. Treating someone with utmost respect now will leave a memorable impression on them. Children never know when that person will be in a position where you need their help in the future. A bit shallow, yet very realistic way of looking at respect.

Everyone deserves respect, but some people get more respect or better treatment based on their age, appearance, and personal relationships with people. Unfortunately for people around twenty-one years old, they usually make bad first impressions on older people because of their age and appearance. A lot of twenty-one year olds are still figuring out who they are so they dress very wildly; most older people don’t consider this and treat them with less respect because of how they dress. A lot of older people also believe they are superior to the younger generations because they have more life experience and are therefore better than everyone younger than them. Younger adults haven’t under the trust of society and it’s not necessarily there fault, it’s just who they are.

In society today it is common for someone to be respectful to their elders or told to do so, but when we are respectful to our peers and those younger or “below” us it shows great character. People want to be respected and seen as grown up, and the best way to do that is to be respectful to others. The best way to earn respect is to give respect. People always say that we reap what we sow and respect is a great example of this. When we are respectful to other they will, in turn, be respectful to us. Someone with strong character is respectful and grateful to others. Benjamin Franklin is a great example of a person with strong

In other cases respect is earned, and not given. What I mean by this is that, sometimes people must gain the respect of others. This can be earned in many ways, like being respectful of others, being the best you can be, and doing kind things for others. This respect can cause people to look up and follow in example of someone, and eventually making you an example for others to follow and look up to, on so on and so forth.

Respecting your elders is important because they know more than you and they know what is good for you and what isn’t. Respecting your peers is important too. Respecting your peers means not making fun of them, not fighting, and helping them when they are troubled by something.

There are many little things you can do to show respect. For example you can clean your room and set the dishes. You can raise your hand when some one else is talking when you have an opinion. Don’t be afraid to share your opinions and ideas. They can be a good example for someone. Be a person that another person would want to look up to. You can not be this person when you have a lack of respect.

    My mom always told me that if I wanted people to give you respect I have to do the same to them. If you

As children we are taught to always show respect to those around us. We are taught to never say no to an adult, to listen and to use manners to everyone around us. But as we grow older we develop a sense of rebelliousness, and an urge to question every single moral and value we have learned.

Respect is an important value to be taught when growing up. Through the years I have learned that in order to learn anything you must have respect for others. I have learned many valuable lessons from listening to my grandmother. She has told me many of her experiences, which has made me a better person. Having respect for other people has allowed me to be more open-minded and see qualities in people that most would not. I have always listened to what my friends and family has to say. That doesn’t always mean that I agree with them, but it is their opinion, so I respect it. In return I receive respect from them. As people begin to respect me more their trust in me also grows.

When a child is growing up, the first thing he is taught is to respect his parents, teachers, and elders. He is being taught about moral principles, in other words, ethics. Although, respect doesn’t reach only the three-said people. Respect is unlimited, and it extends to every single person you meet, in school or work place, or even outside. It could be extended from a president to a homeless person. When a person respects the other, whether he/she is lower or higher in level than the person, it proves that this person has good morals. For example, imagine a scenario where a salesman is dealing with an elderly woman who does not understand or hear well, and the salesman has been forced to repeat his words louder so that the poor old woman could hear the salesman. He becomes agitated and frustrated, so he decided to yell at her and leave her in the middle of the store. This is an unethical behavior of him, what would be called ethical is either, had he been patient and respected the woman, or he had politely excused himself to call another salesperson to handle the
