Respect

Respect 

One of few things in life that I really dislike about millennials in this generation is that we lack respect. We lack respect in a few aspects of life for example, we do not have respect for ourselves, we do not respect elders, and we do not respect our parents.

When we were younger, we were most likely to respect our parents and ourselves and be on the look out for them. As we grow older, our hormones are all over the place and some of us can get ticked off by our parents telling us to do simple chores like doing the dishes or vacuuming. I understand that sometimes we get lazy and do not want to do it, but that gives us no right and an excuse to scream and get mad at our parents. First of all, our parents look out for us by feeding us, giving us clothes, and a place to sleep. Even if they don't provide 2 of those three things, that still gives us no right to disrespect them and belittle them. They do not deserve that attitude. They shed blood, tears, and endured pain that we may have caused them. I bet that when we would grow up, we do not want our children to treat us like that. We only have our parents for a few decades and then they are gone. Let's not leave on a bad note and let's ask them for forgiveness and move on and have respect for them. It's something that is not taught anymore and sometimes the parents don't do anything about a child's behavior. We are not entitled to anything but are in debt with our parents because they took care of us first and loved us first. I hope that with this short blog, we can change the way young people treat their parents because it's lack of respect and completely selfish. Don't be that college student lol.
