Well it’s all part of what part of the world you come from and how you were raised and how you were taught to address your elders.

@updown2020 I was simply taught not to be rude to people.

@MaryJo1996 okay that’s fine . Some others were taught to address sir or ma am.

@updown2020 Lol never met anyone around my age who was.

And here you wouldnt say "Ma'am" to anyone apart from royalty.

@MaryJo1996 Well that’s fine in some homes and schools I think people were taught to address adults by sir or ma’am some kids even addressed their parents like that especially if the were being disciplined.
