[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid should address people however they want to be called, either first name or otherwise. But it’s on the adult to let the child know what they like to be called, or they’ll default to the first name. It’s not rude, just likely following the local norm. Nobody is expected to know in advance that you’re different. If you don’t like it just say you want to be called Ms. Whatever. You’d also be cringe, but my guess is that you won’t care much about this aspect.[/quote] How do these kids know the first names of adults? My kid’s’ friends all call me Mrs X and if they don’t know my last name they just call me Fred’s Mom. They don’t even know my first name.[/quote]
