[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think Mr Tom and Ms Jessica is a good compromise. It feels a little too familiar for a kid to call a parent by Jimmy, but Mr. Mathews feels overly formal. [/quote] Yes. My kids call their friends' parents Ms./Mr. First Name for this exact reason. Culturally, they refer all of our friends as uncle or auntie as a sign of respect.[/quote] This is a strange rationale. What do you teach your kids about respect? And what have those other adults done to earn respect, other than living an extra 20-30 years without dying?[/quote] I think your rationale is strange too. So we're even.[/quote]
