[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't ask the kid to call adults by their last name. If Martha prefers Martha I am fine with that bit my kids will say Miss or Ms Martha. I don't insist on a formal Mrs Jones but Miss Martha is not negotiable. No adult has ever fought me on that. Ever. No one has ever gotten up and insisted I AM JUST MARTHA. [/quote] OK, then evidently we're meeting different people. Because there really are people who mean what they say when they say, "Please call me by my first name." And then there is the issue of how come an adult has to fight somebody just to be called what they have asked to be called.[/quote]
