[quote=Anonymous]It's a turnoff for me too, even though in other respects I like progressive education. I was raised in the Quaker tradition, where titles like Mr. and Mrs. are traditionally not used. Children typically addressed adults by first name, though in the Quaker schools I've visited the use of titles seems common. I understand the rationales for avoiding them but for me it, and some of the other informalities of GDS, came off as entitled or over-privileged rather than informal, if you know what I mean.
