[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't take my husband's name and it kind of annoys me that people didn't bother to learn whether I took his name or not. The older generation I don't care that much if they screw it up, but the direct ILs should know or my husband should have told them. One IL goes out of her way to refer to us as the YYY family and teach my kids that, when that's not my last name. But I feel vindicated when my high school sends mail to Mr. and Mrs. XXX which is not his last name, it's mine. So, if both of our names get messed up, it seems fair. Mrs. XXX though is my mother so that's not correct either. I sort of wish we hyphenated our names though because sometimes parents will address an invitation to my kid with my last name which is not my kid's last name. Other times I get left off email lists because it's not obvious whose kid I'm the parent of.[/quote] I'll be sure to address you as so and so's wife.[/quote]
