Likewise, I also agree that one must model courage and hope that others emulate such values!

Your comment in your introduction, "the aha momemts" will be what I base my decison on. I think about the movie "Troy" which I have seen several times because I am an avid reader of Greek history.

Your comment in your introduction, “the aha

I think about the movie “Troy” which I have seen
several times because I am an avid reader of Greek history. When the king of Troy went to ask
Achilles for the body of his son “he said that even enemies can give, grant, show respect.”

My thoughts then rambled to the word “respect”.
Perhaps, as I continue to work with students this
current school year, I will introduce/enhance on the word “respect” I have not used the word
“respect” when talking to students “on my time and theirs” because to me it has become such a mundane word.

HOWEVER, to me the word “respect simply means
how one portrays oneself to the world”.
