“A Person’s a Person No Matter How Small”

How do we respect each other?  With the value we acknowledge in each person, unrelated to accomplishments, family background, abilities, beauty, or even size.  Respect is for all members of the human family.  By example we teach.

Because Honorable Character is integrated into every part of the campus culture, opportunities to conduct oneself with the good manners of respect are everywhere.   At school and home, treating others respectfully means making eye contact when speaking, addressing people with proper titles, and avoiding sarcasm in our speech.  When an attitude of respect is developed within us as well as our children, we soon discover that others delight to give respect in return, especially when their efforts are affirmed.

DYK … the above quote is from Horton the elephant in Dr. Seuss’s classic children’s story?  “Horton Hears a Who” can be a great resource for teaching respect to any age group.
