I don't like that.

I would never allow my kids to do that. I would never call my plumber "Plumber." I would never call my manager at work "Manager." You call people by their names, not their titles.


You’re an idiot.

So your kids don’t call their doctor Dr. Whatever or their coach Coach whatever? In DD’s preschool they call the teachers Teacher Whatever in either English or Hebrew.

Our nanny asked to be called Nanny and I do love it. To her it is like Mommy, Daddy, Grandma, etc. Very sweet and very respectful.



I agree. As a nurse, I am generally called Nurse First Name. My grandfather was called Maestro by his orchestra. Same with Professor. Nanny First Name is lovely.

In the more-south-south, where we are now, Ms. FirstName.


Children should never call an adult by their first name because it teaches them to respect their elders.


Oh jeez, are you always a wet blanket? It's their nanny, for crying out loud, not some adult they're meeting out somewhere. Our nanny is like our family, and our kids call her by her first name.

Like family? Do your kids call you by your first name?
