What do your kids call you?

Pete Zicato • Jun 14, 2010 12:01 pm
Prompted by Flint's post. Papa sounds old-world to me, but I'm guessing it's regional.

My girls call me "Dad" or sometimes "Daddyyyyyyyyyy", if they want something.
Cloud • Jun 14, 2010 12:03 pm
Mom and Mama. And the little ones call me Grammy.
monster • Jun 14, 2010 12:11 pm
I dunno, I'll have to listen more carefully. I prefer they use my first name, but they don't that often, unless they want my attention in a crowd.
classicman • Jun 14, 2010 12:18 pm
dad dad dad dad dad dad dad dad dad......
Pie • Jun 14, 2010 2:16 pm
"Meow"
lookout123 • Jun 14, 2010 3:01 pm
Dad, Pops, or coach. actually, 2.0 has taken to calling me George. we don't know anyone named george so it is kind of funny.
Sundae • Jun 14, 2010 3:04 pm
I call my Mum by her first name if I'm trying to get her attention in a crowd.
I know it cuts across the noise more effectively, and won't have half the women in earshot turning round.

I call my Dad "Dads" when I'm in a good mood with him.

"My" children call me Mrs Olney.

Mommy and Daddy

Spencer will use Jimbo when he's mocking
Clodfobble • Jun 14, 2010 3:11 pm
Mommy and Daddy. Sometimes he uses "Mom" when he's scripting from a TV show that says that instead. The stepkids use my first name.

I still call both of my parents Mommy and Daddy.

It's not regional, we're being archaic/ethnic on purpose.

Pooka (half Brasilian) speaks several languages, and I always liked how Feivel Mousekewitz called his father "Papa."
skysidhe • Jun 14, 2010 8:58 pm
Archaic is cool. I think papa is cute.
( edit, The word papa rather )
classicman • Jun 14, 2010 9:31 pm

squirell nutkin • Jun 17, 2010 10:54 am
So, are you saying that my responding to their inquiries of "You know what?" with "Chicken butt, that's what. Ever seen one on a turkey?" may not have been my brightest parenting strategy?
jinx • Jun 17, 2010 11:21 am
She sounds like fun. Would get along with my 2yo nephew who like to ask mom out of the blue "You shit your pants?".
squirell nutkin • Jun 17, 2010 1:33 pm
Yeah, She is a hoot. She has been farting a lot lately and will cackle with laughter afterwards and say "I stepped on a duck!"
