We just received an invitation to my husband's niece's college graduation. It was addressed to "Mr. and Mrs." My husband is a doctor and has been all her life. I was outraged. My first thought was that under no circumstances was I getting her a gift. Someone graduating from college should know how to properly address an envelope. The kicker is, she's the one who bragged that she was marrying a guy that was slated to go to medical school. After 12 years let's see how she feels when she gets a letter from a family member, no less, addressed to "Mr."
I've settled down a little and have decided I'll get her a book on proper business etiquette. My goal when my kids leave home that they will have knowledge of proper manners. Whether they use them or not is totally up to them.
