Learning Objectives
• At the end of this module, you are
expected to: • 1. distinguish the situations where acceptance or discrimination are being observed; • 2. demonstrate unconditional respect to other people; and • 3. explain the value of respect in building and maintaining a harmonious relationship with others • Recall a personal experience where respect was shown to you and an observed scenario where discrimination was evident. Copy the table below on a sheet of paper and write your answers. Then, answer the processing questions that follow. Processing Questions:
• 1. How do you describe your feelings
and thoughts about respect and discrimination, and why? • 2. When do you know if respect is being shown? if there is discrimination? Cite some indicators. 3. Is it possible to replace discrimination with respect? How? • Where does respect and discrimination stem from? Why do we respect people? Why do we discriminate others? • These are questions that we can ask ourselves about. We learn to treat people based on our perceptions, knowledge and relationship with them. • For instance, your attitude toward others may be different between your friends and your teachers. You tend to be quite formal and composed in front of unfamiliar people, and very jolly and casual to your parents or guardians. • We feel at home when people around us speak the same language that we use, wear clothes the way we do, and treat us as part of their circle or family.
• However, we feel uncomfortable
when people are too different from us; and at times, this becomes a starting point of discrimination. • Discrimination happens when we take negatively the differences of other people. • We tend to be directed by our prejudice or our preconceived opinion or notion about other people. • Sometimes, it clouds our mind to the extent of not recognizing anymore that people are different. • Our self-imposed conditions about the actions of other people are mostly manifested in our relationship with them. • It is important to develop a social skill that considers the unique characteristics of others and the sensitivity to appreciate them. Such things can simply be coined in one word—RESPECT. • We respect people not because it is the right thing to do or because you need to do it, rather we co- exist with people and we recognize our similarities and differences. We accept them for who they are and we don’t force to change them just to be like us. It’s the same thing that they cannot do such to us. • .Respect yourself first. You cannot give what you don’t have. You cannot control how others would see you but you can shape the way you see yourself. If you think that you deserve to be treated well, treat yourself well. For example, you don’t allow others The following are to abuse you physically or just some ways to psychologically as there are a lot demonstrate our of means to stop it properly and respect for others: legally. • Be on the lookout when your prejudice strikes. There’s nothing wrong if you have an opinion or idea about the person you have just met. However, it has to be balanced with actual facts at hand. If you think that he/she is a person you cannot trust, treat the person well, the same as you treat everyone else, and just reserve your idea to yourself. We have to operate with a logical mind to be fair to other people. • Remember that they are also like you as a person. We have our own life and difficulties or problems. Who knows, the person you might be laughing at is suffering from depression. The man you might be trying to discredit is a victim of bullying and physical abuse. Your classmate who always cracks jokes might be trying to forget his dying father. We all have our shortcomings and we are all capable of committing mistakes. The good news is our past does not define us, so learn to keep in mind that people are always a work in progress. • Look at the positive side of the person. Despite the imperfections or flaws, there are good things in people that are worth celebrating. Who else does not have any flaw or mistake? We treat people with respect because that’s our nature and it defines who we are and not who they are. • Always try to be the bigger person. Have a big room for understanding and tolerance for individual differences. Try not to let your emotion get the best of you. You may feel disheartened, angry, jealous or even disappointed with people and that’s OK. However, it should not change your nature as a person and the way you relate with them. Keep in mind the insights you got from the negative experiences with other people and use these to improve your dealings with others. Share Your Thoughts and Feelings
