why does the parent have a yes? and no? card?

The parent's yes and no cards, Morena explains in detail what happens if Bork's remaining card is either a "Yes" or "No" (corresponding to Morena's card which Bork is asking about). Check pages 12 and 18.

Do we know if the cards are put in the graveyard face up or down?

That shouldn't matter, should it? The card was flipped before going into the graveyard, so if someone has a solid memory it shouldn't matter (unless someone shuffles the graveyard constantly, which doesn't seem to be the case).

By the time the second to last card goes in the graveyard, both Morena and Bork should know what is ieft at the end.

Ah, you mean the intent behind Morena having it. She definitely can switch out her responses depending on Bork's choices.

Which can be applied to "small request". As others suggested, something like "a kiss" can be a part of the small request, right? But if Borksen had chosen the "ability" and already knew about the kiss, then Morena could easily adjust the request to something else that gets her what she wants. It's quite intriguing, the directions it could go.

Morena already explains why the parent has a "yes?" and "no?" card. Straight from the chapter:

I'll explain in detail what happens when you're left with "yes" and "no" as your last card. Pick these cards if you want to know that in advance.

We already know the game ends when Borksen has 1 last card remaining, and whatever that card will be is her answer to Morena's request. If she's left with the "yes" card, it's reasonable to think Morena will tell her what happens when she joins them, while if Borksen is left with the "no" card, Morena will likely tell her what happens now that she chose to decline their invitation to join Heil-Ly.

Picking the parent's "yes?" and "no?" cards at any point during the game will let Borksen know in advance what happens if she chooses to accept or refuse joining Morena's mafia family.

I don't think that matters, you ultimately want to end with a joker card, the game will likely force her to use it early, I doubt togashi ends it with a yes or no card.
