[quote=Anonymous]I think there are other forms of respect than artificial titles. I hate the word ma'am and would not want to be referred to as that. I have a first name, please use it politely with a please and a thank-you and eye contact. My kids call me mom, their friends can call me my first name. My inlaws insist the kids call them by their first names (not grandma or grandpa, just first names). I think that is a bit weird but it is what they want so that is how my kids address them. it is respectful to call someone what they prefer to be called. [/quote]
