What Do You Call Your Mom?

[Juicy]

Dizzy's thread got me thinking...

What do you call your mom?
Mom, mommy, madre, mother, her name, mama, mum, ect?

I call my mom, mami [which is mommy in spanish] and I call my grandmother, mama.

Mommykins. Only to annoy her.

Usually her first name or mom, though.

 

[Giny]

Maman.

Though for a while she got tired of all of use calling her Maaamaaaaaan, so she said to call her by her first name...and we did. For the longest time it took me a while to start calling her Maman again.

My son calls me mom.

I have two moms... my biological mom and my step mom. I just call them both mom. Can get confusing when I'm talking to one of them and I mention the other... haha

mom, mommy, sometimes Kathy lol

 

[Dizzy]

Mum.

I will call her by her 1st name to get her attention - she's selectively deaf sometimes! It usually weirds her out to hear her name being said by one of us... even if we are 30, 26 and 19.....!

mom, mommy, sometimes Kathy lol

Me too!

 

[Juicy]

Do you guys think its disrespectful when young children/teens call their moms by their real name?

 

[Dizzy]

Nah - depends on the context though.

 

[jess2416]

Me too!

Get out of my head... ROFLMAO

 

[PWCorgi]

Get out of my head... ROFLMAO

No! (that's all I got, LOL)

Actually I don't ever call her mommy, lol, and I only call her Kathy when she is ignoring me.

Mom, Momma, MOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMAAAAAAA!! I only call her by her first name to p*ss her off. She doesnt use her first name and goes by her middle name. I only use her "real" name if I need to get her attention quick.

And yeah, it is weird to call her that...

I saw this clip and tried it on my mom, she wasn't too happy
I did it to my gym teacher at school as well, she has a better sense of humor then my mom, lol.

Don't you love stewie? lol

 

[Juicy]

She doesnt use her first name and goes by her middle name.

My mom is like that too.

 

[PWCorgi]

Yes, I am in love with Stewie.

 

[smkie]

skittledoo Hyia will tell you she has three! ANd in a way she does.

I call my mother mama.

 

[noludoru]

I don't even understand the video.

And now, I don't see it as a sign of disrespect or respect. It's simply what you call them and HOW you say it that says it all as far as respect goes.

Mine was either Mum or Mom .... ( Mummy or Mommy when young ) ( An American in Canada ! ) My kids give me lots of handles !

 

[sparks19]

I mostly call her mum.

I always called her mommy when I was a teen and it used to annoy the hell out of her haha.
