[quote=Anonymous]Good question. Certainly accept what other families want to do and ignore their implied judgement. Usually people should be called what they want to be called, but in this case, with a kid and their parents' rules, I'd let it go. If being called Mrs. Lastname was important to YOU and they refused, I think that would be a different story. I prefer "Ms. Larla" because it conveys a little respect. but not too much lol. Also I grew up in the Indian culture and it reminds me more of what we used to do, which is "Larla Auntie". I have a friend who prefers first name only. I forgot the first few times we hung out so I'd say to my kid things like "Ask Ms. Megan for a cup." and in a super chill way she'd say "just Megan". So now I tell my kids to call her Megan and I tell her kids to call me Larla. Happy to adapt to what they are more comfortable with. Gets complicated when more families/preferences are around, but you gotta go with the flow![/quote]
