[quote=Anonymous]I've noticed a shift from daddy to papa and have also wondered why. I from and live in California, grew up in the late 80s/early 90s. Dads back then were Daddy, even hispanic families used Daddy unless they were just visiting the area or newly here. Now most kids that I know call their fathers "papa" (sounds more like Paw-puh if I'm going to be exact) and I have no idea why. All different kinds of families too (young wealthy types, crunchy types, older parents). [/quote]
