[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I introduce my kids to my friends this way: "Julia, this is my friend Oprah Winfrey." Julia: Hi Ms. Winfrey Oprah: Hi Julia; you can just call me Oprah. Julia: Okay. And forevermore, Julia will call her Oprah, though she will introduce her to others as "This is Oprah Winfrey, my mom's friend." I want my kids to call you whatever you are comfortable being called. If Oprah had not said anything, Julia would continue to call her Ms. Winfrey until the end of time. Both girls have run into former teachers and been told they can use their first names since they aren't in their class anymore. Neither of them can do it. :) [/quote] I'm fiftysomething, and I still can't call my sixtysomething high school teacher and mentor, whom I run into occasionally, by his first name. It's still Mr. Smith all the way.[/quote]
