Hummm, Hawkeye seems to know them related or something because it is CLEAR that it's weave. Also, let's just say when SOME black people because I don't know anyone who doesn't mean their own natural hair texture. But I guess you know better than anyone. Thank you for educating us on these beautiful people.

Thats not their actual hair--that's very clearly weave. When black people say "natural hair," we're talking about our natural hair texture without chemical manipulation (e.g. relaxers).

That's not her (or his) natural hair, it's clearly weave.

ask a little white girl with hair to her bottom that

some children are born with a lot of hair, hair may grow fast lots of options ...don't hae

To demand respect doesn't mean he doesn't teach her to respect. You first need to know your rights and then your duties, they go hand in hand. And to know how to respect others first you need to know how to respect yourself.

Everyone deserves respect until they prove they don't. And you sound like you search for a reason to disrespect people.

I'm sorry, but if some strange dude tries slapping my butt will I walk down a street, I'm gonna DEMAND he respect my personal space and possibly that of all future women he encounters ... by, I don't know, punching his teeth out. Or kicking him in the balls. See, some kinds of respect, that of personal space, is supposed to be given by all, not earned. I don't touch strange dudes on the street. I don't catcall them. I don't ask them to smile for me. In turn, I give them that same basic respect.

Respect is not earned I'm sorry, respect should be just the norm. So what, if you don't know someone, you just don't respect him until he earned it ? :|

So I guess when women and minorities are raped, beaten, murdered because they aren't respected as people, they just must have not EARNED enough respect, right?

Respect is only earned to a point. A certain amount of respect is owed to everyone.

You can demand respect as a human being you know, if you can't respect a person because they didn't EARN your respect, at least respect them as humans, respect their rights as a person, the same goes for animals, respect them because they DESERVE respect at least for surviving and being alive. EVERYONE DESERVES a little bit of respect.

Totally agree. Respect is earned by giving respect to others, and thinking yourself on a pedestal might not be the best way to go about it. It's a delicate balance. He should teach her to love herself, but not necessarily to put herself first in all situations - that's too close to selfishness

I disagree. Every human on this planet deserves to be treated with respect. Perhaps people might do things that will lower your respect from them, but we are all entitled to be treated with it from the outset. Saying things like respect should be earned essentially means that you will be disrespectful to EVERYONE unless they jump through the hoops you want them to jump through and that's just wrong.

I think he means by the way she carries herself

Jim, I think what he is saying or at least what I am understanding him to say is that the way you carry yourself will earn you that respect that is due a person. When you present yourself with pride and self respect, you command demand or earn the respect of your elders, peers and young peopl. I could be wrong but that is what I rook from it and it is also what I teach my daughter. BTW my dad's name is Jim Hubbard!!

Perhaps that's how it is demanded and your interpretation of his statement is wrong.

Just what I wanted to say, thank you.

do u you get respect? lol in this world u have to demand it no one gives it

@ Jim Hubbard "I teach her to demand respect." "And that will cause her plenty of pain in life because normal, thinking people know that respect is EARNED not owed." Exactly right. I made a similar comment. I stopped reading and looking after I saw that.

You got owned...

As a black woman, she must demand it. Especially when dealing with men. Jim, you are a man. YOU MUST earn respect from your bosses or those around you.. you also are white, so a certain amount is just a given, whether you know it or not. She is a black girl, and growing up in America you should know that she can hardly expect common decency. This is the land of kkk, cops killing blacks and getting paid vacations, and etc etc. I think you're just afraid

Exactly! I hope he is teaching her how to show respect to others. If she runs around demanding respect and saying she is a Nubian Princess, it won't get her far in this world.

It does because we're not used to seeing it in the Western parts of the world. Kissing/pecking your child on the lips is an ancient form of love and affection that remains in hundreds of cultures around the world. I do agree that it looks a little bit staged/odd and more romantic that affectionate. I think the photographer set it up like that to commercialize it more, and that's what's throwing us off.

I thought the same thing.

It gave me more than pause...don't care for this.

That last picture had me like whoa..

If it was a little boy and a mum in the same pose?

They're filters, it's not photoshop. There's a huge difference

Lizelle du Plessis 5 months ago An article filled with beauty and joy and an unbreakable bond between a father and a daughter and you still find a way to make it bad. Why can some people not just accept something good for what it is, something that is good. Don't always go looking for negativity in every situation. That is not a way to live life.

Some people kiss their dogs on the lips... I don't think kissing your child (as long as it's still a CHILD) on the lips is odd.

Researches thinks that kissing comes from the mother feeding the infant through their mouths, like birds and other animals. It's translated into a form of showing affection, either to your kid, your parents or your partner. No matter how brainwashed and paranoid society has become about this, kissing originated as a parent - child symbol of affection and love. Thousands of cultures around the world has kissing/pecking their children on the lips as something completely normal. It's not disturbing or unnatural unless you grow up being told it's odd.

Everyone has a different interpretation of respect - whether it should be earned or is a human right. This girl has the right to feel respected until she does something to lose that respect. Part of being humble and kind is to respect each other. Just because you disagree with the way he teaches her, doesn't make you right and you should get off your high horse. His lesson of demanding respect teaches her that when someone approaches her to mock her hair, degrade her because of her skin colour or gender, she then has the right to demand respect and knowing this right, will help her to appreciate herself. I admire their confidence and I think you have forgotten the point, to feel comfortable in your own skin, instead you have cherry-picked the un-importance of it.

Obviously he didn't mean it that way, i think you are being a bit up yourself.

Exscuse my typos because I know one of the ignorant spell checkers is in the building.
