is it weird to call your parents mommy/daddy?

[slaysjkickz89]

I'm 20 already and i have no problem doing it. Some of my peeps think it's weird. What do y'all think? I mean, i grew up calling them that, i'mnot all of a sudden gonna call them by first name.

btw- longtime NTer, just dont post much.

 

[jawnyquest]

"ma"

 

[dgk3188]

mami

papi (or viejo)

 

[tfromthe617]

kinda weird

 

[soltheman]

I call her mama sometimes.

Dad has always been dad. I barely ever called him daddy/dada/etc.

Do I look like I wanna get slapped clean across my face? Callin parents by their first name is not an option. What ethnicity are you OP?

 

[halftime718]

Ma, ama, cucha.

 

[al audi]

my sister an I call dad, dad when we were younger we called him daddy we still call mom, mommy for some reason though.

I guess you mean literally calling dad - daddy and mom - mommy

I did it all the time - then again in hispanic families papi - mami is common ..

I don't think I would of have called my father daddy - probably dad but my mother - ma or mammy

 

[big j 33]

The more common transition saying mommy/daddy as a young kid, then just mom/dad later on in life.

It's not weird at all, just not as common. Who am I to judge another families signs of showing affection.

 

[Smorgasbordgie]

Makes me cringe..

 

[superantigen]

With my mom, I often say MA or MOMMY and with my dad, primarily DADDY and occasionally, well rarely really, DA.

I call my mom by her first name sometimes, it doesn't bother her.

Ama and Apa typically, but I have lots of other versions I occasionally pick and choose from.

I usually call my parent "meh" or "deh", the last syllable instead of the first like "ma" or "pa".I do not find itweird at all.

What I do find weird are those siblings that call their parents "my mom" or "my dad" even though they are talking to each other.
