At what age should a woman stop calling her parents mommy and daddy? I don't mean a random one off mommy or daddy but actually used 15-25 times per phone conversation. Note, she's not clingy to her parents and only speaks to them a few times a week for 5-15 minutes.

Thoughts? Drives me crazy.

I'm pretty sure that most people refer to their parents with the same name they did when they were kids.

that's not true. a simple google search answered my question for me.

basically, any woman who still calls her father daddy thinks its perfectly normal. Everyone else thinks its not.

honestly, it would bother me, too.

what age did google say?

like i said, there was a thread where most said it was absurd for an adult to use mommy and daddy. the only people that disagreed were women who still call their parents mommy and daddy.

you never said there was a thread!

mother dearest hates when I call her mother dearest

well it would be awkward to call your parents Karl and Anne, specially if thats not their names

Does mrs. given2trade have a bit of an Electra complexxxxx?

That's what I always say.

Is it weird that my father-in-law calls my wife "sexy?"

Depends. Is she?

Are you going to start posting more when you dump her, matty?

Can't wait to see you return to form, old buddy.

ever since my old man got cancer, my sister's taken to calling him daddy and it gets on my last nerve. she also likes to refer to me as johnny when sending emails to friends and family updating them on his progress.

I'll never forget the look on my mom's face when I called her 'mother' instead of 'ma.'
