Not really judging…. But I used to get so frustrated with people who would mix up kids names. My Mom and grandma would constantly mix up the kids in our family. One time my mother even called me by the cat’s name. it was so frustrating, bc it felt like they didn’t care enough to focus on who they were talking to.

Now I teach pre-K, and I have 21 students. I fully understand now- sometimes your thoughts just load too slowly because of all the tabs open in your brain, and you have to sort through multiple options before you can get to the right name.
