Respect is when you ACTUALLY raise your daughter..Watch her grow up, be there when she needs you, come to her graduation, and Wedding.She wanted that from her Dad, she was hurt too many times..Fathers are the ones who stay in your life, not ones who come around a handful of times in 27 yrs. I feel for the father, but come on. It's sad because now its too late, and she wanted to be loved by you.
