You choose a respectful means and a respectful way of disagreeing because you are never allowed to be unkind to your parents, even when you disagree with him, and even if they are unkind, be kind, disagree politely worse comes to worse walk away with respect, but don't be unkind. So that has got to do with

a lock. A lock is different from a kata kata is a person who breaks relations generally with their family members. And a lack is a person who is unkind to his or her own parents. You're unkind and disrespectful.

Now, if for example, they are asking you to do something Haram, and you say, I'm not going to do it, then your father says, You're not allowed to be disrespectful, you being so disrespectful, you can smile and say, My beloved father, this is not disrespect. This is disagreement with respect. You're my father. I will not deny that but i disagree with you respectfully, very interesting. But if you disrespect your folks and your parents, it's going to be very hard for Allah to forgive you. May Allah subhanho wa Taala grant us forgiveness.
