My therapist tells me it's pretty common for people to treat their family members with less respect than they treat their coworkers.
My family aside, I always thought that people were especially respectful of the people they valued most, and who share their lives and homes. I guess the people who shaped my ethical values (which were at least half celluloid families) wouldn't dream of speaking of their spouses or children without respect, even at those moments when they may not be feeling all that much affection.
