You gotta stand up for yourself no doubt, but that isn't what gains true respect, imo. That only lets others know that you'll fuck them up if they cross you, or take advantage of you. Some people don't respect anything, some people respect violent people, others respect different things. It all comes down to what characteristics the indivual values in others.

Fear has no real respect, imo, but I do Love that philisophical weed, lol!

:stoned:

btw, my son need not fear disappointing me...he's my son and I Love him the way he is.
