[quote=Anonymous]It never occurred to me to call them Mom & Dad, since, you know, they aren't. And they're offended by this, and have told DH they don't understand why I dislike them so much. I don't dislike them, I just think it's weird to call them something they're not. I have actually tried to do it, and it's just so odd that I can't force the words out of my mouth. All the other spouses call them Mom & Dad. So. 1. Is it normal to call your IL's a variation of your parents' names? 2. How can I get over my mental block? (My parents are still alive, in case anyone was wondering)[/quote]
