[quote=Anonymous]Anything but first name is fine with me, and I teach my kids not to call adults by their first names. If an adult insisted on being called Bobby I would have that conversation with my kid when it came up. In my view, if an adult is fine with being called by their first name, that could just be a regional thing or how they were raised. But if an adult absolutely INSISTS on being called by their first name by children, there is something off - trying to erase boundaries, be "one of the cool moms," something like that. I had one student teacher in high school who insisted we call him Greg and he also asked several 15/16 year old girls for their pager numbers, so my antennae are up for stuff like this.[/quote]
