Subject: We probably won't agree on the name thing but in reality I think it has nothing to do with the name but is more about how that person relates to you. As Roxy said to her Mom I have friends. Speaking about names we used to have to address each other at work by Miss, Mr. or Mrs over the PA system and would to do it with a tongue in cheek sort of attitude. A co-worker would alway refer to our boss as the Madam which would get under her skin as she thought it made her sound like the head of a brothel, LOL!
In reply to: Theresa 's message, "That's exactly how I was as a kid. I wasn't combative, I just laid my case out to my parents if I felt the need. So they wouldn't have to worry about me and what I was doing. That's probably why I got to do whatever I wanted. I don't like rudeness or disrespect. I think Amanda needed to check her tone, even if she didn't change her words. And I personally like the first name thing, and the other things that have developed that bring teens closer to the adults that are educating or parenting them. So many teens believe that no one understands or is on their side, if they feel a comraderie with someone who is older and wiser they'll feel safer and will most likely be more receptive to guidance." on 10:17:31 07/31/07 Tue
