Teaching Children Respect In 10 Minutes Or Less

[@Pocahontas502]

This is awesome!! How do we teach adults to respect?!

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

EVA MORENO, I hear you! Wouldn't it be wonderful. I am going to imagine it now.

[@ricgomez1]

You have to keep in mind that adults were once kids, hence they were never taught "respect" For many, many years kids were respectful to their parents, then along came the Hippies and eventually became parents, suddenly kids were problematic Let that SINK in.

[@NaturalNails4life]

@@ricgomez1 and then along came rap and created a lot of rebellion.

[@ricgomez1]

@@NaturalNails4life Rap could create rebellion, but rap doesnt raise kids, parents do.

[@NaturalNails4life]

@@ricgomez1 I agree but kids are highly influenced by the world and all the.music and influences outside of parents as well.

[@shez1640]

I used to play a game with my kids to do something kind for someone every day without them knowing who did this kind gesture if they found out we would think of another idea. The kids loved this game. And I always told my kids, please treat others how you wish to be treated yourself.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

[@karinaschulerferro3815]

that definition of respect is so good :) i've always had issues with the golden rule of "treat others the way you want to be treated" because everyone receives respect in a different way. "treat everyone in a way that makes them feel important" is a way better way to phrase it (especially to those smart kids who find loopholes in everything)

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Thanks for the thoughtful comment, Karina Schuler Ferro. I appreciate it.

[@mayya.artist6239]

This is not only for kids but also for adults ... ! Respect Means:- - Treat people nicely, - Respect your & others properties - Corporate with others - & Obey authorities

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Mayya. Artist, the principle is universal.

[@ricgomez1]

How many adults did you see teaching others "Respect" when it came to PRESIDENT Trump? If you "Respect" others it must apply evenly to all others, you can choose when your being respectful depending on whether you like them or not. Either you're a "Respectful" person or not, it can't be turned on and off like a light switch, it your character and your choice who you are.

[@silvaniawinged]

I've been harping on respect lately - so I'm glad this came up.

[@thatslifecaro1479]

Love the video, as always! Concerning obeying people who have authority over you, I think it may be reasonable to add "if they ask something reasonable" to prevent the abuse of children. We know it is a risk among people who have authority over children... Children do not have to obey blindly people of authority.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

This topic is also a worthwhile refresher for all of those politicians who do NOT have a clue about the US Constitution! The principle of showing respect for the private property of others is KEY and needs to be drilled into the future generations so that the politicians of the future won't be taking stuff away from those who EARNED what they have and giving it away to those who have NOT earned anything!! Bravo to you for making this video -- I think you need to make a series of videos covering these topics for those 16 yrs and older!!

[@indianocean7271]

Hi I appreciate this teaching, definitely food for thought. The only area I'm not sure about is 'obey authority' when we know authority figures can abuse their authority so I would suggest more needs to be done to provide caveats around not being blindly obedient. My mother was a 'never argue back' strong authority figure to the point of 'I'm big you're small therefore I'm always right and you're always wrong'. This led me to be vulnerable in the sense of being left with no ability to have mental autonomy and decide for myself whether an authority figure was right or not. I was very 'groomable' plus girls are taught to be nice and polite and therefore not argue. In light of this I was all obedience and kowtowing to any adult at risk to myself. I have been interested to hear Brene Brown in interview on this subject. She mentioned teaching her children how to argue back with authority figures. She says to them they can disagree, not comply, decide for themselves but they must must must speak with respectful tone and use please and thank you. I think this is a safer model for children but girls especially who may not know how to say 'No' to inappropriate advances because they have been conditioned that adult = authority = obey. I was not allowed to say No to my parents (and pretty much any adult) so this meant I wasn't taught how to have boundaries. Oddly enough my pushy aggressive intimidating often angry mum who used mean words and non verbal communication has left me a bit of a mousey 'puppet' but I'm in my 50's and feel have a lot to learn about basic respect because she didn't model it and I simply don't get it. You'd think my compliance to her authority (no choice) would mean I have great understanding of respect but I feel I haven't any understanding of respect. (Although I hasten to say she never hit me and was not a person who cursed or swore.) My church minister said his granddaughter aged 5 was given an award at school for 'independence' or something similar because she had said firmly to the headmaster in passing, 'I like you, but I'm NOT going to kiss you'. I wish I'd known at 5 that sense of self. Not having to please others especially anyone in power. Another example is a story on themoth.org/radio-hour/under-the-gun, where a man was pulled over by a squad of police (for being black) and he had a licensed gun correctly boxed in the boot of his car. Repeatedly the police used intimidation tactics and their power to try and get the man to 'pick up the gun! pick up the gun!' He knew if he did he'd be shot as a black man with a gun. Under great pressure, he repeatedly refused to obey authority. Unbelievable to me where I'd just obey. He didn't pick it up. Defying authority saved his life but took immense courage. "Being nice" doesn't cut it as a tactic or rule. It was being able to oppose authority and know his mind even when 10 police are shouting at you to obey.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

We definitely need to teach kids what is an appropriate request and what is not. That can be done as they are growing up. We did this with our children and they knew what was a "normal" and "reasonable" thing to be asked to do and what was not.

[@deanaburnham9571]

Teach them to handle being small with humility. The truth is they are small. It's okay to experience that.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Deana Burnham, it is o.k. thanks for commenting.

[@eliferdogan5859]

I really needed this right now and I finally get it! I thought loving my kids was enough and that respect came along with it, but it doesn't. We just had a sit down and talked about the difference. I was trying to discipline them without making these rules clear but I feel so much better about doing that because they know where the line is now! I am so, so happy now. I can't thank you enough! 🙏👍😊👏

[@siyer99]

I really like the way you put the three rules here, and I talked with my son about obeying and Authority and person in charge but he simply seems to undermine authority àt times. There are less times when he might really listen but the things have to go on twelfth time. Am I falling short somewhere to show him Authority? What should I do? Which is the correct way to show it? As talking, rewarding, yelling etc all works temporary.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

slyer99, it is natural for kids to "forget" about the rules. Think of it as the three stages of maturity. When they aren't compliant, they are stage 1, when they grumble, but do it stage 2 and when they do what needs tobe done without complaining, Stage 3. Help them work toward stage three. There are some videos on the channel you can watch.

[@jamiesematat7247]

My stepdad’s teaching: -Yelling at me saying that “you’re not like other kids that respect their parents!!” -yelling at me saying that “if you don’t have me, can you live?!!” -yelling at me saying that “why don’t you go back to live with your dad who is like every dad!!!!” Yelling at me saying that “ you don’t even have manners!!!!” Me: well my definition of respect is someone I can look up to. FYI: he told me that if I get scold or fight with my mom. Just listen to her. Him fighting with my mom: doesn’t even let her talk and follows her around and say negative things to her.

[@shez1640]

Sounds like he is just mirroring his own feelings onto you, All I can suggest (as my stepdad did the same to my sister & myself) is dig deep & focus on your beautiful inner qualities & find someone you can look up to, and do something that makes you proud of yourself. I became a dancer & artist. I ended up feeling sorry for my stepdad thinking what a miserable human he must be, and it helped me ignore, or take it to heart anything he said.All the best take care of you.🦋✨🌹☯️

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Jamie Sematat, I am sorry that you have to live with this negativity. I would like to offer a few resources to assist you. We have a "Just for kids and teens" playlist - kzbin.info/aero/PLq2mRDkHEBPCicx6xcJ5ZJzVe9UBlRTQV. We also have a "Positive Personal Development" playlist - kzbin.info/aero/PLq2mRDkHEBPCYtqYUCuzsyYpAlzKZDVVV. Since you can't change your stepdad, try focusing on becoming more positive yourself. That way when you are an adult and ready to leave the house, you will be well-prepared to face the world. I have written a short book on positivity, called "Portable Positivity", and is available for download as an e-book here: drpauljenkins.info/optin-26401478. You can also watch this video, which sums it up: "How To Stay Positive No Matter What - Happiness Is A Choice" - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKaZaWOGh9ONr9U.

Dear Dr. Paul this is very nice solution or principles that you have, but can you share how to practically doing this or, how to communicate to teach child using words or sentences. Very need your guide, thank you very much.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Great suggestion! First, we need to build a relationship with the child, which means having good feelings. Give them positive praise and love. Also, have rules and consequences when the rules are not followed. You can also start early and be a good example. I hope that helps. I can't really coach in a KZbin comment.

[@mortal3115]

@@LiveOnPurposeTV Thanks Dr. Paul, alright now I'll try my best.

[@brightpage1020]

I think if we treat our kids with respect, they'll learn it. Like when I want them to say "please" and "thank you", I make sure they hear me say those around the house, appropriately. A lot. And guess what - it works. When I want them to take their plates up to the sink after supper, I take mine up first and when I return, I ask them politely to do the same, then thank them for it. By the time a child is 3 or 4, most of them can say please, thank you, and take up their plates, or put their socks in the dirty laundry bin... Or flush, or whatever. If they feel respected, that will flow from them into the world. As an ADHD mom, it's so hard to remember - in a moment if frustration - to treat my kids at home the way I want their teachers to treat them at school or church, but when I do, it pays off in spades. Love the "respecting property" section. Thank you for this powerful reminder.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Thank you for thoughtful advice...I will teach these things to my grandchild. ( I thought I taught my children to respect others...but one of my child did not turn out well). Any advice on teaching/ dealing with an ungrateful & disrespecting adult child (who has a child of her own, lives in her parents house & living of her parents)? I am afraid that her bad attitude, manipulation, toxic words & disrespect toward us will not only have negative impact on our grandchild but also cause psychological trauma ( he is her child & already 3 years old but we have been providing & taking care of him 70% of the time). We love him dearly & would like to protect him from any harm. If you are able please make video on this subject.

What kids need is the definition of the word respect because the word is often thought to mean "When you FEAR someone stronger than yourself." That is what the movies and videogames teach the kids. Gangsters and bullies always say, "You better RESPECT ME!" That is why kids are confused. The dictionary definition of respect says, "To hold in high esteem.... or .... highly regarded." Bullies and tyrants and gangsters MISUSE the word! What they want is FEAR from their victims. That is the key to understand what TRUE respect is! "Respect" has nothing N.O.T.H.I.N.G. to do with FEAR! Why should kids "highly regard" the teacher? Why should they "hold-in-high-esteem"... their fellow students... or themselves? When kids low-rate themselves and others, they do not behave correctly. When they say to themselves, "I am not AFRAID of this teacher" ... somehow that is being "a real man." Kids.. especially boys ... have a sick definition of what a real-man is. Where do they get the idea that a REAL MAN pushes people around and makes people afraid of them? Likely from their own father! That is why we teachers have such problems with some of the children. We are trying to overcome the years of wrong teaching from Hollywood, videogames,.... AND their parents! I think... the best way to explain it to the kids is with a MAN-CARD... (or woman card). One side shows the Hollywood kind of "A-Real-Man." The other side shows what a true (civilized) "Real-Man" is. When those 3 things are explained clearly.... (respect, civility, and manliness/womanhood), then the kids can understand and change their bad behavior.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Thank you for your thoughtful comment, david mundy. You make some really good points. I'm going to think about this and consider making a video on the true definition of respect.

[@Yellowblueej]

Three rules: 1- Respect yourself (be nice to) yourself and others 2- Respect others’ property 3- Respect authority - Cooperate with others (who are asking you to do what is right and reasonable); - Obey people (who has authority over you)

[@evastickler3298]

How are some specific ways to show respect through actions? I’m trying to figure out a way to show and prove to my mother that I have respect for her despite her genuine belief that I do not. A large part of it has to do with housework I think? I’m not very aware of myself or my surroundings most of the time even if I put conscious effort to try to be (likely a problem caused by my autism) and a common problem my mother and I have every few months is that she suddenly snaps after staying silent about me not recognizing a mess and cleaning or a chore that needed to be done but wasn’t. I’ve been trying to help her help me develop cleaning and chore routines (like suggesting chore lists every week or telling me to do something as soon as she recognizes it) but if they don’t work after a few attempts or didn’t work in the distant past of my stubborn childhood, she gives up, says it’s just easier to do it herself, and has another breakdown a few months later with the common line of me not respecting her due to my inaction. It’s frustrating for the both of us because I’m desperate to both show her that I respect her and also learn how to be a functioning adult. Now that I’m on summer break I ask her almost every day “What chores do you have for me today?” and she responds with “Nothing” I ask her if she’s sure and she says yes. I’ll catch her doing some cleaning and ask her what my job is and remind her that it is a common problem for us that I don’t do enough around the house, only for her to respond with “the fact you ask is enough for me.” This is problematic for 2 reasons: 1. I’m developmentally stuck at not having a chore routine and 2. I know I will not remember to ask when schoolwork distracts me and the cycle will go on and on with nobody changing for the better. I want to be self-promoting but for some reason I just cannot get myself to do it properly and I DO NOT know why. I’ll work myself to death with all-nighter after all-nighter for my school work and earn good grades. I make project deadlines and turn in my work despite physical and mental health issues. But doing housework and expressing my respect for my mother falls painfully flat. It doesn’t help that I’m horrendously clumsy and end up ruining things like the time I left a hot cup of tea on the kitchen counter, not realizing that a heat ring was a thing that could happen (multiply things like this times 100 because I manage to be an unaware, human natural disaster). I don’t like being like this, but it’s like my brain is developmentally stuck at a very juvenile age and these actions or lack thereof, and bringing up how behavior on both our ends keeps us stuck, comes across as very disrespectful to her. My mother has a saintly level of patience, but I know I’m wearing her down. I don’t know what to do.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Eva Stickler, how about if you make up a list of the things that you need daily or the areas of the house that most often inhabit? Then you could make a list of chores for those areas. Such as, you obviously use the bathroom each day. Make a list of the things to be done to clean the bathroom, (you can find cleaning charts online), and then set your own schedule to clean the bathroom that you use twice a week. You could schedule a vacuuming day and a dusting day. You don't need to ask your mom. Take care of your clothes, pick up your room. Whatever makes sense to you, do at least one thing everyday and then you can feel good about helping and your mom can see that she doesn't need to take something else one, your schedule. You are a remarkable person to think about this and want to help out. You can do this.

[@kiimabbey3528]

I would like to know how to explaine the difference on when to respect authority and when to suspect that obeying can be dangerous. Thank you.

[@helenbrown8572]

Because a person in a position of authority asking a child to do something unreasonable or unkind is violating rule 1 or 2? Respecting our bodies doesnt mean we 'dont' get abused by adults but it makes us aware that we 'are being abused' and so we can raise an alarm quickly! Ive brought my son up to know that he simply isnt to touch anyone or be touched by anyone in his private areas (unless its for medical reasons) until he is an adult or preferably married (though Im probably being unrealistic abt the waiting until ur married bit 😕)...

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Kim Abbey, this is why ongoing conversations with our children are necessary. They are learning at all stages and ages and can begin to understand more of what you are saying. No adult should ever tell a child that they should keep something a secret from their parent. If the child thinks that their parent might not like it, they should talk to their parent about what is being asked. I also talk to the child about their feelings. If they are asked to do something that makes them feel yucky, they need to talk to a parent or someone they trust. Hope this helps this could be a video on its own.

These are great but my problem is that my intelligent 7 (almost 8) year old doesn’t understand why someone else should have authority over her. I try to explain that it’s because I’m her mom and that it’s my job to make sure she is prepared to be a nice person and productive in society but she still doesn’t get it. If she is asked to help make her bed she comes at me with logic (not even with an attitude) like “Its my bed and I don’t mind that it’s not made so why do I have to make it?” Or with school work she will say “I don’t mind that everyone will be ahead of me or that I won’t have a great job in the future, I’d rather that than have to do math”. I love that she is smart but it’s so challenging and she is only 7. She has something to say for everything I ask her to do. She is rude when I ask her to do something reasonable so I ask her to be respectful and she says “I don’t feel like you respect me so why should I respect you?” She thinks that someone with authority asking her to do something is disrespectful because she has a mind and body and it’s not fair for someone else to control it.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Sabrina W., she does sound intelligent. She needs to understand what respect is and get in someone else's shoes. How would she feel as a mother trying to do her best and her daughter being rude? There is civility and kindness and we should always choose kind. You might try the mountain analogy that you are further up the mountain so you have a different view than her and she isn't there yet to see all the long-term consequences. Definitely talk to her some more.

[@aminaz1778]

It all starts at an early age, formative years, people who have the child's best interest at heart combine with good nutrition, as simple as that. You'll have a normal human being and no parent should take credit for it, it's just a matter of being there and doing your parental duty, love, attention, and nurture That's all there is to it, just one caring ,scrupulous adult !

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

When I have talked to children about this we have used words like be kind and be nice. We have talked about nice words, nice touch, etc. They pick up on it. When you see it happening, point out the words or actions were respectful because they supported the other person.

At what age should you first start to teach a child respect?

[@mammathorne2098]

In my opinion it's never to early to start talking about it with them

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

From day one, Dontdalla, it is being kind and a child needs that nurture from the beginning. We should always talk to them, even if they can't understand, that is part of language acquisition and then conversations will be normal between parent and child.

[@strawberryanimation9294]

You can't really teach or demand respect. The definition of respect is a feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities, qualities, or achievements. So respect is something that can only be earned through actions and it's the same way it's lost. I'm 17 and my Grandfather does not understand this. You can't demand respect from someone or teach it. You can only earn the respect of someone through nice and admiral actions.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Strawberry Animation, we are talking about behavior here.

[@tanskye]

1. Be nice 2. Be respectful to property 3. Obey authority and co-operate with everyone who obeys first two rules. Authority is parents, teachers and police officers.

I'm having trouble with my 3 boys (9,7&6) they tell me "I hate you" "your mean" also I ask them to say please when asking me for anything (ex. Mom get me something to drink) -_- I've been teaching them to say please since they started talking. I ask them nicely & calm to kindly clean up what they took out or clean up the mess they had made, they do it very angry/sloppy when they know that upsets me. I am at my wit's end as a single mother 😰

I had a parent tell me to move out of the way of their child even though I was out of their way (I was stood at the kirb waiting for a bus and the whole path was clear) I was exasperrated by the entitlement the parent was teaching their child. That is surely not good. Anyway I did move out of the way so the child didn't go right into the road(they were ona scooter).

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

As parents, we need to model kindness so children know what it looks like.

[@xgaming125g]

How to teach kids respect. 1. Teach adults respect. If you want a child to respect you, respect them. Obviously the adult has more freedom of what and what not to say to the child but respecting a child can teach a child to respect the adult, and then soon the child will respect others. 2. Teach adults what answering back actually means. So many adults have zero clue what answering back means and say to a child "you're answering back" when they really aren't. This causes the child to lose respect for the adult.
