[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]using the terms “mother,” and “father” to describe parenthood, excludes those who do not identify with gender-binaries.

In other words, using “mother” or “father” is transphobic.[/quote]

my 2 y.o. uses mama and daddy interchangeably for me. I answer to both :).  (Would prefer though that she use ima/abba but I'll take what I can get. :))

I call my parents by their first names.  I don't think they cared and I wouldn't care.  [/quote]

To the PP who at 52 still uses mom and dad that seems so WEIRD to me.  I haven't used mommy and daddy since I was a child. I can't imagine using those terms now.  [/quote]

You’ve never heard anyone say Mom or Dad? [/quote]

I'm almost 50 and I'm rarely with people who are also with their parents. So no I can't recall that I have experienced  an adult addressing their parents as mom and dad.  First names seem more respectful at some point once you are an adult.
