Respect

Respect, something that every person strives to achieve. Or at least everyone should strive to earn it. I say earn it because you can not forcefully take respect from people. Like I always say, anything earned is better than anything taken or given. Take teachers for example. If they can win the respect and trust of the children they teach, the they have half the battle one. Respect opens the door for for others to take in and process what you are trying to say to them. And if anyone knows, getting a students attention and interest is one of the most difficult things teachers have to do. But, this door swings both ways. Teachers have to respect their students to listen to any question that they come up with. As well by showing respect when answering their question without sound condescending or criticizing it,  because every teacher should love having their students ask questions about the current subject.
