Respect
I believe that respect for one other is a big social issue we face today in our generation.
We see this problem in teens, in so many places. For example, in school there is a lack of respect for students from other fellow students. At home there is a lack of respect from the children to their parents. There is also a lack of respect from young adults to most authoritative figures.
People in school today never listen to the teachers. They talk when the teacher is talking, and totally disrespect the teacher. These students should treat the teacher with respect. Respect is showing high regard for one’s self, other people, and other people's property. In order to be respectful a person must first respect himself.
The main reason why people need self-respect is that without it, they will be unhappy and not take care of themselves. Without self-respect, many people will fail to realize that what they want and need in life does actually matter, and because of this, they will go through life being miserable. Also another important reason of self-respect is that you need to respect yourself before anyone else will respect you. If someone has so little self-respect and self-esteem that they are unable to stand up for themselves, no one is going to respect them.
A person should not only respect himself, but also other people. A person should give positive remarks to their friends. They should not put them down, by saying negative things about them. If the person respects his friend, then they think highly of them, and won’t put them down. Also to show respect to people one should listen to what others have to say. Lots of times when people speak to others, other people will talk to someone else, or just tune the speaker out. This does not show respect to the speaker. They should be quite and listen to the person speaking.
I see respect as a universal characteristic. To me respect is how someone else treats me as a person, whether they agree with me in a certain
