[quote=Anonymous]“Mom” and “Dad” are more like pet names than actual names. I might call my husband “Ootsy Bootsy” when we’re at home together, but I don’t say to my friends, “Ootsy Bootsy is really into gardening lately,” I say, “My husband is really into gardening lately.” It’s exactly the same with “Mom” and “Dad.” You don’t refer to people by their pet names alone when you’re with non-family members.
