I think you're reading too much into it.
I'm sure most of the posters in this thread love and respect their parents too, but the thread is about parents being hard to please.
I'm sure if you made a thread about "great things about your parents" a lot of the same people could make huge lists about their folks.

If you think people don't "respect" their parents because they're complaining about one aspect of their relationship, then I challenge your definition of respect.
