[quote=Anonymous]No, I don't mind EXCEPT when you refer to me in the third person, by my first name, in the presence of your child. At my (secondary) school, students refer to teachers by title and last name. At parent-teacher conferences, I recently had a parent who brought his student to the conference, conferred with me, and then, in front of me, began a conversation with his child in which the parent said things such as, "If you don't understand the assignment, ask Larla (me) before you leave class. Don't tell Larla you understand if you don't." I've had a few parents who insisted on doing this, and they KNOW their students don't address us by first name. [/quote]
