[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh I hate it when kids call me 'Ms' or 'Mrs' or whatever. One kid comes to our house, I've told her a hundred time to just call me by my first name, but she does it anyway. It is way too formal.[/quote] It's not too formal, and it's not your decision. Her parents are raising her to be respectful of adults. Too bad that you see it as your role to undermine that.[/quote] Just no. It is perfectly ok to teach your kid that the default should be to address adults as Mr and Mrs. Lastname. But if they ask for something else, you should also teach your kids that It is most polite to call people what they prefer. [/quote]
