    I do with my mom... but my dad doesn't respect me, so I don't respect him.
     
    I have limited respect for my mother.
    She has worked hard as a single mom to raise my brothers and I, and for that I respect her.
    But I find it hard to respect her further than that. She grates on my nerves in so many ways. She tries to control how I think. Nothing I do is ever good enough for her. Nothing I say matters to her. Logic and reason escape her.
     
    My father, no, not at all. He was scum.
    My mother however was a wonderful parent and was my best friend.
    I still have a huge supply of respect, admiration, and love for her.
     
    I do not, in any way, respect my dad. He does not treat me with respect, and so why should I treat him with respect? Even then, I think very lowly of him, and do not think that he even deserves respect.
    My mother, on the other hand, I treat with the utmost respect and love [unless we're goofing off together] as she deserves great respect and love. She is incredibly supportive, kind, humerous, motherly, down to earth; she's absolutely wonderful.
     
    I will never respect my dad. He is a horrible person.

    I respect my mum as my dad put her through hell for the 18 years they were together. She annoys me about some things.
     
    When I first looked at this title I thought "how can you respect rent? It's losing money." O_o

    Anyway, I don't respect my parents at all. But for Nan and Pop, I respect them, they're nice to me.
     
    I don't respect anyone that I live with. Well because I'm going to keep it short and simple I can't stand them



    There your parents lol!!!
    They gave birth to you,
    How can you not respect them?!?

    Number one only 1 person can give Birth to you and thats the mother. And to I wouldn't respect my parents if they did stuff like gave me away and other stuff like that. or if they did stupid decisions like choose drugs over there own kids because there are some Parents that are like that. I'm not saying that my parents ever did that to me. but what you said made no sense

    I have had hardships with my parents in the past, but I have always respected them.

    My father, though in his seventies, continues working, puts aside retirement and does more or less everything he can to make the family comfortable, I have immense respect and appreciation for him and what he does to benefit my mother, myself and him.

    Mum, though can be rather irritant with her ambiguosity when speaking (I know it's not her fault, she's not a native english speaker) and her frequent bad moods, I respect her for numerous of reasons, firstly...she does a lot of the housework, secondly, she takes care of all of us, and thirdly, when it all comes down hard, she never aims to give up; she'll just continue working hard to redeem herself of what she missed out on during her childhood, proper love and affection.

    It would be hard for me not to respect them both. Parents moan and cry about certain things their kids do because they care about their welfare, and usually the kids hold a misinterpreting grudge against them because of it. Times like that will need you to think out of the box and realise that as well as you, even they have it tough.

    Unless your mother was the Virgin Mary, your father would have had a hand in it too, even if he wasn't the one carrying you around and shoving you out into the world simply because if it wasn't for his sperm, there wouldn't be any situation where your mother would be carrying you around and shoving you out into the world.

    So, in a sense, he helped give birth to you too.

    That said, to answer the question, yes, I respect my parents. They brought me into the world, taught me most of what I know, clothed me, fed me, paid for my schooling, broke their backs to support me (and my brother, for that matter, who was never easy to care for), and were generally more trustworthy than anyone else I've ever met. As my father once said, "The only people who give a damn about you in the world is your family."

    Of course, the end of that quote would be "and sometimes, not even then," and I'm not naive enough to think that every family is like mine. Sure, if you've got due reason for it, then you're free to refuse to respect your parents, and there certainly are good reasons out there. However, if it's just a streak of teenage angst, then you'll eventually just sit back and take a look at who got you that far. *shrug*
     
    Yes, I respect my parents a lot because they work very hard and have come a long way from where they have been. They always put my brother and I's needs before their own and make sure we have everything we need.

    And yes, I do get in fights with them a lot, we don't agree on everything and I get mad at them, but I still respect my parents for everything they've done.
     
    I respect both of my parents very much. They both work very hard to keep our family going, and they have always provided me with almost everything I need and more. However, we argue a lot. When they are rude to me, I'm rude to them back, and they get even more mad. XD; But we still love each other, no matter what.
