{":Out Of Respect:"} (134 hits)

Out Of Respect Is About Us Changing Our Language When Talking About Or Referring To Our First Family.

The Other Day An Older Lady Corrected Me When I Called The First Lady By Name.

She Said That It Is Improper To Be Referring To Our President Or The First Lady By Their Names.

I Am Guilty Of Doing Just That, But Every Sense She Corrected Me My Language Have Change

When Referring To The President And The First Lady.

Which We All Know That Is Not Respectable When Referring To A Leader By Name.

We Are Supposed To Say President Obama Or The First Lady.



Matter Of Fact, I Was Reading Something The Other Day And It Was Talking About

How Tyler Perry Insists Of The People That Work For Him To Call Him Mr. Perry.

He Said He Have Young Adults Working For Him And That When You Got Kids Half Your Age Walking Around Talking About What's Up.

He Said That is A No No.

Because He Is Their Boss And That He Are Supposed To Be An Example For Them.

Moreover, He Went On To Say That Is Just A Level Of Respect One should Give When Talking To Someone That Is In Authority Or To The Elders

Moreover, He Went On To Say That We Adults Are Supposed To Teach Our Youth About Yes Ma'Am and No Sir.

If We Want Our Youth To Show Respect, We As Adults Are Going To Have To Change Our Language In Our Households, Out In Public When Referring To Our Leaders Are Even The Ones In Authority.

I Agree With All The Above 100%.
