15 YR OLD CALLING FATHER DADDY??!?

Favorite Answer

I think it's LAME, and STUPID. Every time you say "daddy" you embarrass yourself beyond repair. Just stop. Grow the fcuk up....Show more

Lots of other people do it too. I call my parents mommy and daddy and so does my 20 year old friend. I don't see what the big deal is, I just try not to do it in public because it can be a little embarassing....Show more

Me, and both my sisters, have always called our parents Mummy and Daddy. My little sister has gone through phases where she would call them Mum and Dad, but it just really didnt sound right.

Why? Cause I'm used to calling them Mummy and Daddy, and that's my name for them if you like. Calling them Mum and Dad is like giving them a different name. It just doesn't sound right for me.

I feel uncomfortable calling them that when other people are around because I worry that they will think I'm weird for calling them that, but it really isnt something you should be put down about. I think I'll be calling my parents mummy and daddy till the day I die. =P

If, however, I'm talking to someone else about them, I will refer to them as "my mum" or "my dad", because I guess I see mum and dad as nouns, and Mummy and Daddy as names if that makes sense....Show more

Why should it be a problem? It's just another word for father. If he wants you to call him something else, he would tell you. And what other people think about it shouldn't even factor into it. The two of you are the only ones involved. No one else has a right to criticize you about it....Show more

of course not the way a child calls their parents is determined by the culture they grow up in

eg like in united states daddy/dad is most common but another part of the world they probably say papa/father...Show more
