His statement is how can we expect them to respect us when we don't respect ourselves. Doesn't really translate to a kids these days comment IMO, because it's loaded with all of the history in it. It's interesting that it's played as us respecting ourselves, when it's really about their respect for us, which is contingent on their value base, which *must* become our value base in order for their respect to be warranted.
