[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mr. and Mrs Lastname. It's a sign of respect where I come from.[/quote] Same here (I'm from New York). Eventually, they asked me to call them by their first names. But I didn't push it, because regardless of whether I think that level of formality is a little strange among family, I was not going to alienate them on something that didn't matter to me. You call people what they want to be called, within reason. My DH called my parents Mr/Mrs the first time they met him, and they immediately asked that he call them by their first names. [/quote] I do agree on the "call people what they wish to be called," if someone wants me to call them Mr or Mrs, they need to call me Dr.[/quote]
