Just a general question since I had a convo this morning with someone about this.

Do they call you Mrs. XXX or by your first name or even XXX Mom?

right now I have no desire to be called Mrs. anything it will make me feel really old .maybe when my kids are teenagers I might want to be called mrs. but I cant see my self right now. I always insist the teachers at daycare just call me by my first name also!

My DD calls her friends parents either Mr/Mrs last name OR Mr/Miss first name, depending. Some parents don't like to go by last names, but I don't allow her to call adults by their first names only, so she calls them Mr/Miss first name. If you are a really close family friend, you become Aunt/Auntie/Uncle first name... even if you aren't lol. I guess that's not the norm, but it's how I was raised.

My dd's friends call me lots of things... first name only, "mrs. last name", "miss first name", or even just "um, excuse me?" from some of her more shy friends lol!!!

Right now just xxx's mom, to my friend's kids I'm aunt xxx. When growing up I called some parents Mr and Mrs and some by their first name or just some just mom or dad. Depended on the relationship and how it progressed overtime.

Same.

It's amazing - I only pick up/drop off from daycare once a week but, the kids all know who's mom I am - I like the extra layer of security.

When Ian was in daycare I was "Ian's mommy".
My friend's kids call me "Aunt Diana".
Now Ian's school friends call me "Diana". I'm ok with this. I call my mom's friends by their first names.

Same. It's so cute to hear 10 kids yell it's xxx's mommy. Every once in awhile we will run into a child outside of school and they are usually all excited because they know someone.

Re: What do your kids friends call you?

First name, and I actually hate it when people insist their kids call me Mrs. Lastname. I understand that they want their kids to learn respect, but I feel I should have the final say in what I'm called.

No Mrs. Some call me Aunt Kristen, some just call me Kristen. Just depends on how close I am with them. I feel like Mrs. is too formal, I don't like it.

School friends call me xxxs mom. My friends kids either call me by my first name, my maiden last name (which is what the majority of my friends call me) or Aunt Nicole. My students at dance call me Miss Nicole

I have my kids call all my friends, older women, etc. Miss (First name). I think it creates a sense of "they are older than you and therefore you respect them."

This is what they seem to do here in Maryland, I'm Miss Melissa to all of my daughter's friends. It became the norm to me but I can see my parents look a little confused when they come visit.

I always tell them to call me by my first name. I work in a preschool and all the kids call the adults by first name, so I think I'm just comfortable with that. Mrs. XX would make me feel so old and I've never been a fan of calling anyone "aunt" or "uncle" unless they truly are.
