I don’t get along with my parents, but it doesn’t seem appropriate to get into that so soon.
The trouble I’m having now is that my co-workers seem to find “How do you get on with your folks?” to be an appropriate getting-to-know-you question. I like these people and I assume they are trying to be friendly, but I have no idea what the appropriate response is.
Take the co-worker who wanted me to work a shift for them , or the irresponsible family member who wanted to borrow more money. On the few occasions that I did agree to cover a shift at work or help a family member, the requests were never jokes.
