[quote=Anonymous]OP, the reality is that MOST children have a mommy and a daddy. That's not a slight, it's just a fact. So your child will grow up knowing that, although there is nothing wrong with having two mommies, that her situation is different from most kids. Children's pretend play is a way for them to make sense of the world and understand roles. It's not a referendum on her feelings for you or your partner or her security in your family relationship. FWIW, my almost 6 year old freqently calls DH and me "daddy-mommy" or "mommy-daddy," interchangeably. I think it is sweet and an indicator of how strongly attached he is to both of us. Kids don't think about these things the same way that we do as adults.[/quote]
