  1. I really do think that respect is important. In order to get it, you need to give it. giving respect is an important think you need in your life. Respect to me means to be nice and compliment people. Help them out, not ignore their problem and laugh at them. Don't put them down, "raise" their spirits. You show respect by just doing the simplest nicest things. For example, my friend Diogo, he moved here from Portugal from my perspective, i don't see him being spoken to by other students. The way i show respect for him is by saying hi or just sitting with him and talking to him. The only reason i show respect is just to be nice. You really don't need a reason to respect someone. I really do it out of spite. It's really just a natural instinct for me because that's how i was raised. But anyone can have respect for anyone even the ugliest person in the world,you still have to have respect for them. I really think that everyone deserves respect even if you hate that person, you should still respect that person. Everyone has their moments where they have to respect someone. There's not a day that goes by when i don't respect someone. At least once a day you should do it. If your in a bad mood, don't take it out on everyone. But as i said in order for you to get respect, you have to give it first.

  2. Yes, I do think respect is important because without respect the world wouldn't work right. People would most likely treat each other horrible if there wasn't any respect in the world. What I think respect is, is to treat others the way you want to be treated. I know it sounds 'old school', but that's the best I can explain what I think respect means. Respect can be shown in many different ways like donating to charity or just saying excuse me when trying to get someone's attention. Even little things like that can make a difference in someone's day. Personally I would say I respect even one at first, the only thing people can do to lose my respect is be mean to other people/ me. Another thing would be talking bad about my family or friends, that person will lose all of my respect no matter what it is that they said. My feelings toward respecting others is that everyone should do it. Respect is something everyone should show because no one likes a rude and mean person, and when you are respectful others are bound to respect you back. I don't think respect ever as to be earned unless a person loses respect and is trying to earn it back. I would understand then why respect should be earned but other than that is shouldn't have to be earned. Respect is important and needed in the world, without it we wouldn't be able to live like we are now.

  3. Respect is one of the most important characteristics a person can portray. To me, respect could be something as easy as complimenting their shirt to giving personal advice to a close friend, or just someone who needs help and guidance. If you were raised that way it is easier to act that was towards other people. You can not only respect others but you can respect yourself. It's very important to take care of yourself and to tell yourself "I can do it" or "how can I improve upon myself as a person?" I always try to be the best person I can, like picking up a dropped paper or helping someone out. It shouldn't matter weather the person is messy or out of place one day, you should display kindness. Even if it is someone you don't especially like you should stand up and be the "bigger" person. In my opinion, everyone deserves respect to begin with, but it can be taken away depending on the person. It is a huge feature of a personality which improves someone's reputation and makes you an overall better person.

  4. Reapect is a feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities, qualities, or achievements. This is really important, without is this world would not be the same. Now a days respect is shown in many ways. One of them being parents, you respect them because first of all they are older than you and second of all because they are your parents; without them you would not be here. Another way of people showing respect is in the army, a lower ranked soldier has to respect a higher ranked one. I reapect people so I can get it back. I feel that reapecting others is needed more because some people out there deserve more reapect but get none. I think that respect should be earned.

  5. Respect is every important in our society. Respect is the way of showing kindness to a person. People these days barley show respect to teachers, parents,and etc. to me, respect is basically what you need to be my friend. Also, being respectful can make some ones day go better. respecting is grate way to be caring about other people not themselves My feelings toward respect is that its really important to have it because people will be mean to you back if you don't show any respect. i think that everyone should earn respect because it wouldn't be fair if one person was really working hard to earn someones respect and that person gives another all their respect even though they didn't earn it like the other person did.

  6. Yes I think respect is important because you would wanna be treated the same as try would want to be treated.it is shown be always listening to your teachers and helping others ect. I respect people because i would want to be treated the same way they would want to be treated. In my opinion you have to earn respect because no everyone has this quality. People just go around and make fun of every one and they think they will still be treated with respect but they won't . If you want to be respected you must respect yourself and the people around you first

  7. I think respect is very important especially towards your parents or advisors. Respect to me is when someone pays attention to what u have to say and do what you say with no questions asked respect is shown by following someone and doing what they need done and listening to them I respect people when there a good rolemodel or are atleast a man or women of there word and not how I should say a scum bag I feel respect needs to be earned people need to earn respect cause you could be a scummy jerk and have no respect that's just the way the world is

  8. yes i do think respect is very important. in my opinion everyone should show respect even if it isnt given to you.i understand there is the saying treat others with respect and you will get respect back but in all cases that is not true and everyone isnt the bigger person. but when you show respect to elder,women,people higher then you,or just by even saying thank you it could show someone you respect them ! i show respect to every adult or anyone even when they are rude to me because i feel everyone deserves it at all times. when some gives you something or dose something for you you should always say please and thank you at least thats how i show respect!
