Or teachers have ceased to deserve it, because they have become drones and appartchiks.

In my experience, you merit respect, you get it. If you're NOT getting it, the man in the mirror is likely at cause.

In some cases, sure. A lot of kids and parents these days have different definitions of respect. A teacher may gain respect from dickhead student, but still be disruptive as hell because they are under the delusion that they are more important than everybody else. It wouldn't be anything personal against the teacher, they are just dickhead students with dickhead parents.
