[quote=Anonymous]We are from a different culture. In our culture, most relationships have a name, and I had never ever heard anybody referring to elders just by their First Names. Even strangers were referred to as Uncle, Auntie, Big Brother, Big Sister, Grandma, Grandpa - based on their age. My married DD was asked by her MIL-FIL to address them by their First Names. Somehow, I unconsciously cringe each time my DD mentions anything about her MIL or FIL and refers to them by their First Name - I find it shocking and disrespectful. As if I have failed to teach manners to my DD. [/quote]
