Background: We've been trying to teach Uno and Dos that you can earn people's respect by being honest, kind, a cheerful helper, that sort of thing. We've also kicked around the idea of an allowance based on chores (beyond what is normally expected of them).
UNO, after helping me clean the kitchen: Mom, you said respect is earned, right?
RCH: That's right!
UNO: Can I have some now?
RCH: Well remember, respect isn't a thing, it's a good feeling.
UNO: Oh. Huh. Can I just have the money, then?

That one made me laugh right out loud...that girl knows what she wants! :-D
I'm going to start asking for some respect "right now"! That is hilarious.
Your kids crack me up! And the way you write about it all. I've been fairly absent from blogging with the crazy summer and all so read through all your entries today. Wow. Write a book!
