Do the teachers at your school refer to you as "mom" (or "dad")?

    I call them Mr/Mrs/Ms Last Name. I say Riley's mom if I'm not sure. Nothing like saying Mrs.Lastname and being told with a deadpan face "That is NOT my last name." Yikes.lol

    My last name is different from DS's, which teachers don't ever seem to catch on to right away, so I usually get Mrs. DSlastname instead of Mrs.mylastname for a few months.

    Mr. or Mrs. if they have the same last name as their child since I look at it in my grade book a bunch of times a week.

    Edit: I read this question wrong. I was thinking of it from a teachers point of view. I think because I am in the midst of parent conferences for my own class. Yes, I am called mom by LO's teachers but I know they know my name bc they had a conversation about my name being the same as someone else.

    @Dandelion: but I don't get offended when they call me the kids' last name... I understand it's confusing.

    @Mrs. Jacks: I'm a wedding photographer and during family photos, I use "mom" "dad" or whatever appropriate word I can to do family photos! The times I try to use names, it's worse and every one is confused!

    @birdofafeather: haha, I'm a wedding planner and I often call my couple's parents "mom" and "dad", mainly because I can never remember their names! But now I'm going to have to think twice, didn't consider that it might not be appropriate. Oops.
