[quote=Anonymous]My DC's young teacher pleaded to being called by her first name. At first we felt that she was trying to be friendly and would be more open with parents because of this, but it turned out she got defensive easily and really wasn't comfortable working with parents. I learned that a teacher's name does not show how they want to be treated in conversations. It's been much easier dealing with an older teacher who wants to be called Mrs. and is able to easily communicate with parents after many years of teaching.[/quote]
