I think try to teach Mr. or Mrs. with last name because as they get older they should do that anyway so might as well teach them properly from the beginning. (Unless it’s a super complicated last name!) Just keep working at it. It does get easier!

What are your thoughts on how young children should address your adult friends? I grew up always using Mr./ Mrs. last name, and thought I would teach my children the same. Instead have slipped into Ms./ Mr. first name, which is easier for them to remember and pronounce. Maybe this practice will evolve as they get older, but for now feel like we are stumbling through.
