Mum and Dad or Ma and Pa?

I use mum and dad, I don't know about the US but it's definately getting rarer in Canada, I don't think I've ever heard a person use ma or pa anywhere but on T.V.

easily, the 'pa' or 'ba' sound is between the 1st sounds that little ones can articulate. by utilising certainty optimum societies attempt to make little ones have a lots greater advantageous connection and accountability to their fathers, they have words that ought to foster that bond. The 'ma' sound is a greater robust now no longer elementary sound for little ones to make, yet little ones are of direction fascinated of their mothers, so the preliminary ability isn't a count quantity. 'Ma' is a delightful syllable it relatively is mushy bypass-culturally.

Mum & Dad in Australia since Adam was a pup

Mum and Dad has always been more popular than Ma and Pa... of course, I am assuming you don't live in hicksville
