THE MANY
ASPECTS OF RESPECT • The word respect comes from the Latin word “respectus” meaning attention, regard, or consideration.
• The concept also refers to the ability to value and honor
another person, even if we do not approve or share everything he or she does. It is accepting the other person and not trying to change them. TWO KINDS OF RESPECT 1. Earned Respect • The kind of respect received from another as a mark of deference to their rank, seniority, experience or standing in the society. • We see it in statements like: “respect your elders”, “show a little respect”, or “with all due respect”. 2. Given Respect • The kind that calls on each one of us to respect the intrinsic dignity of all other people. If something is intrinsic to us, it is essential to our being and cannot be earned. It is a property of being a person. FORMS OF RESPECT •Self-respect: This type of respect refers to the ability to respect oneself, to value and appreciate oneself.
