is it disrespectful to call an older person by their first name ?
i texted my MIL and called her Mrs. ____ and she told me to call her by her first name.. i just don’t feel comfortable doing that ?
especially because out of all the years my husband and i have been together i’ve only met/interacted with her twice. plus where i’m from, you never call older people by their first name, it’s always Ms. Mrs. Mr. and if i didn’t my parents would whoop me for being disrespectful.
i’m not sure if it’s normal to use first names or not because i’ve never ran into this problem until now as an adult lol
