I was raised to show Respect

 

“The Quiet Power of Respect”

Respect isn’t loud.
It doesn’t shout, doesn’t need a spotlight.
It shows up in the small choices we make every day.

When a teenager listens instead of interrupting…
When they choose kind words over sarcasm…
When they treat teachers, friends, and even strangers with dignity—
That’s respect in action.

It’s saying please and meaning thank you.
It’s knowing how to speak up without putting others down.
It’s understanding that everyone has a story—even the ones we don’t understand.

Respect is strength.
Not the kind that shows off, but the kind that lifts others.
And when teens live with respect, they don’t just follow rules—they change the world around them, one kind act at a time.

 

 

 "Respect Looks Good on You”

 Listen Up – Hear people out without interrupting
 Speak Kindly – Words matter. Use them well
 Accept Differences – Diversity = strength
 Follow Rules – Respect for structure shows maturity
 Help Out – Be someone people can count on
 Own It – Admit mistakes. Learn. Grow
 Hands Off – Respect people’s space and stuff
 Say Thanks – Gratitude never goes out of style
 Include Everyone – No one likes to feel left out
 Lead with Respect – Set the tone. Others will follow

Respect isn’t old-fashioned. It’s timeless. And powerful.
