This article discusses the educational significance of the moral demand for respect. In Ethics and Education , R ichard P eters presents a conception of educational respect that was recently taken up by K rassimir Stojanov. This article responds to both P eters' and S tojanov's contributions and proposes another understanding of educational respect: to respect children is to treat them in a way that enables them to see themselves as persons endowed with dignity; that is, as having the equal standing to make claims on others.
