Regarding:
	"[Allowing] children [to] call adults by their first names
	 ...breeds illmannered and impolite people..."
  
Oh come now.  Calling people by their first name has nothing to do
with encouraging rudeness or inconsiderate behavior.  Unless, of
course, you define children calling adults by their first name as
impolite, in which case you have a tautology, but are missing the
point.
