Respect is not granted to someone just because they fucked your mom and she carried you to term. It's because of mindsets like these that many children are incapable of escaping abusive homes. Children grow up believing their parents are infallible and therefore blame themselves for being hit or molested. Respect is earned.
No. I didn't choose to be born so I don't have to respect the fact that my dad fucked my mum and she had me.
Nope. I've always hated my parents, especially my mother, so fuck that shit! Some people just don't deserve any sort of respect! And don't jump to conclusions, i'm not just being a dick here, it's not like any of you have met my parents.
Not at all. My father has given me nothing to honor or respect about him. He is a sad excuse for a human being.
No.

Why not have reverence for your parents, should they deserve it?
I believe that you should in theory honor your father and mother, but in practice, my own father was abusive, and doesn't deserve to be honored.
its ''Honour'' honor thy mother and father, well yes I agree in it though,
Yes and no. If you love and respect them and they love and respect you back, you should make them proud. If that's not the case, no way in hell anyone should do that.
