[quote=Anonymous]You pick whatever you want that you want to go by, and just don’t get bent out of shape if a friend of your child’s calls you Mrs. Smith. When I was a teenager, I remember we were all at someone’s house and “Dave Jones” mother stopped by to pick him up. We were raised politely and said “oh, one minute, Mrs. Jones, we’ll go get him” and she got really nasty and started going on about how she was “Ms. Davis and how dare we call her Mrs. Jones” and so on. If she had just been nice about it and said “hi, actually I go by Mary Davis now” no one would have thought a thing about it. Instead, i still remember what a witch this person was 35 years later.
