You can describe society in a dozen different ways, but 'respectful' might not come to mind. A time when you could have an argument with someone and shake hands at the end is long gone.

Many people don't respect those they disagree with, but they couldn't be more wrong.

In this episode, Dr. Rick discusses how respect restores an American culture and why you should remain a figure of honor and dignity (even with those you disagree with).

Show Highlights Include:

• How sitting on the front porch with your neighbors builds a foundation of respect and civility (that will inspire everyone in your family). (0:30)
• What the Boston Tea Party taught us about dealing with conflict and how you can grow with dignity in your next heated argument. (3:51)
• Why the U.S Military takes respect to the next level - and why you should treat others with the same honor. (6:58)
• The 'Nordstrom Way' and how it makes you a more dignified and less judgmental person. (10:41)
