The document discusses the importance of respecting teachers. It defines respect as a positive feeling of esteem or deference that can be both given and received. Respect is often thought of as being earned over time. Teachers play an important role in students' lives by acting as agents of change, counseling pupils in their career choices, and punishing students out of love, not hatred, like a parent would.
