I think it would depend on the character of the step-mother. If she is good, I think I would respect her. I am not sure whether this is how I would react if such things happen.

Well, personally and honestly, I don't know the level of respect I can give to my step mother if my daddy arrange for another marriage. It is difficult to tell because I have not experienced it before. But if it happens, I believe that at least, I can respect my step mother because I do respect my father. If my father would be happy, then I would be happy for him too. But then, those are just imaginations right now because I think that my father is too old to marry at this time of his life.

If your Dad really loves this person then I think you owe it to him to try to learn to love and respect her too. This may or may not occur. If you can't come to love her then at least give her the respect due as his wife and your step mother. I guess so much depends on how she responds as well. Also a lot depends on the situation in general - how she acts and treats you, are there other kids, how do she and your Dad get along. There are just a lot of variables. I would recommend starting out by offering her the same respect you give your father and see where it takes you.

Quite honestly it depends on what type of person your step mother is. Obviously if your father is rich and she's just a gold-digger then quite frankly she doesn't deserve any respect. However, if she has done nothing to you and makes your father happy, then you need to deal with the fact and show her the respect she deserves as your father's wife.
