[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Very close, but only say "Mom took us ..." to my siblings. Not even to my cousins. [/quote] This. I have some friends who just say "Mom" or "Dad" and it always makes me do a double-take.[/quote] I worked with a woman (she was 26 or 27) who was raised by a single dad - I can't remember why - and would refer to him when talking to us, her COWORKERS, as "Daddy." Skeeved me out. "Daddy is taking me to New York for the long weekend." At first we thought this was a romantic sugar daddy situation so we nominated one coworker to ask. Nope. Her actual father. [/quote] Ugh. Women who refer to their fathers as "Daddy" to OTHER PEOPLE are the worst. He's not my daddy, sweetie! Personally I refer to my mother and my father as my mother and my father in conversation. It's weird to me to use diminutives of any sort to other people, though I address them as Mom and Dad.
