Maturity and respect are both desirable and beneficial. To be held in high regard, to be respected, you must earn it and in turn, to show respect is a learned behaviour. Both require maturity.To watch a student grow and become a better person makes four years of university worthwhile and is the reason I became a teacher. To watch them achieve their goals and help their peers, teacher or a member of public is what makes me happy. During my time at CCSC, I have seen some students really try hard and apply themselves toward becoming a better person.
It is really important that you keep reminding your friends, children, family and yourself that although you may have money and material objects, respect is the most important thing you can have in this world. Respect for yourself and one another.
