[quote=Anonymous]I taught my kids when young to address adults as Mr or Ms unless told otherwise. However, I noticed outside of the school setting, most eventually asked my kids to address them by first names. I have always introduced myself to children and teens as Jane. When kids call me Ms Smith I remind them they can call me Jane but will answer to whatever name they choose rather than make them uncomfortable. Yet, I think it’s the polite thing to call people by the name they ask you to use. [/quote]
