Mom Confessions
Do you refer your parents as mom and dad or by their first names now that you are an adult?
I am asking because my boss (64 years old) refers to his late father by his name rather than referring him as "dad". I just find it odd because everyone knows who his dad is (his dad started the company, and the company is his dad's name).
I call my mom, mom. I call my dad, dad. How about you?

Psh I'm 32 years old and still call my dad "daddy" most the time. :) Although in front of my kids I call them "meme and papa tom". I call my mom "mom, mama, mommy, meme or on occasion MOTHER" it depends on the situation. :) I would never refer to my parents by their first name!

They are mom and dad.
Maybe they didnt have that close of a relationship? Or maybe he just does it at work so people know who he is talking about with no further explination.

I call my mom either mom or momma.
My dad (stepdad) is dad, daddy or big nigga (inside joke).
My biological father I call b his name. (John) -
I call my parents and step-parents all by their first names, only because I was traumatized by their divorce, I swore they were not my parents anymore..LOL. My son calls me by name, when he says, Mom, it sounds funny - and we both agree that it doez.

Well my biological mom didnt raise me, so I dont feel like I CAN refer to her as mom/mommy. She passed when I was 5, but I refer to her by her her nickname Krissie. Her name is Kristen. And my biological father didnt raise me either. When taking to my sisters (half sisters) about him, I refer to him as daddy for their sake, but to anyone else, I also refer to him by his nickname, Ty. His name is Terence. He passed when I was 14.
The only person I refer to as mommy is my great grandmother. She raised me since I was 5 days old, so she's the only mother I know. She passed away April of last year, and I dont even refer to her as "my grandmother" when talking about her (I actually cant remember the last time I have) I just say for example "Mommy was sooooo funny." I miss her so much
