I think the word respect is used loosely here. But I understand what Margie and Newman are saying. The courts have to sort out the truth otherwise which is so painful and not always accurate. What the preacher did was spare the child more heartache which is so important. So, respect may not be the perfect word, but it is much better to confess than put the child through more pain. He's already done enough damage.
