[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will let kids call me anything they want… but I prefer my first name. The worst was this one kid who used to call out “um Larla’s Mom!” I said, you can call me Mary. She seemed to alternate between Larla’s mom and nothing at all. Now, she doesn’t come over much. I don’t easily feel disrespected. They just need to follow any explicit rules I bother to give them… and stop bad behavior when I ask them to stop. [/quote] That's... weird. You feel disrespected and seem happy this friend doesn't come over much now... all because she would call you "Larla's Mom"? It's not like she called you "Sally." Did she break any of your other rules or was she generally rude and disrespectful? In many cultures, the norm is to call someone "Larla's Mom." Adults and children both do this. I wouldn't say it is disrespectful.[/quote]
