Am I too old to call my parents "mommy" and "daddy"?

[RainbowFanGirl]

I feel like I'm too old to do this, but I can't break the habit. Am I too old?

[DivaMonae]

Like I hate when I see people do that on TV, movies, or in real life.

They are still your parents so okay "mommy and daddy" sound rather childish if you feel like you're an adult then call them mom and dad or mother and father instead of their actual name. They're still your parents and you'll always be their child it just shows a line of respect. I personally could never call my parents by by their first when speaking to them it's just odd.

[RainbowFanGirl]

I used to when I was little because my mom would call my dad by her first name. I got scolded for it so I stopped.

[DivaMonae]

Oh I see. Well there you go they still want you to call them what you've always been calling them.

Any why one earth am I getting all these down votes my answer isn't any different from there's lol

[RainbowFanGirl]

I dunno. I upvoted though. :) And okay

My much older sister who is 50 calls our Dad, Daddy.

I usually think its odd (because its not common) I hear fully grown adults do that.
I even have a 29 year old friend that does the same.

But I also think its cute, it shows the connection you have.

Call your parents what you want.
Don't worry about n e one else.

[RainbowFanGirl]

Ok. Thanks. :)

[mskay]

I call my mum "mum" or "ma" depending on the language I'm using to talk to her. Sometimes when we talk, we call each other by our names - but it rarely happens tho.

[RainbowFanGirl]

Aww. Thanks.

[justbanANNAz]

i will never consider myself too old to call them that. they'll always be mummy and daddy to me, and ill always be their baby girl.

[RainbowFanGirl]

That's right. :( I don't wanna grow up.

[justbanANNAz]

girl me neither!

[Jadeblack]

Not even. My dad who is 43 still calls my grandma Mommy. It's kind of endearing to hear another person call their parents by that. You probably would only get laughed at by your friends, and friends jobs are to laugh even if they see nothing wrong with it.

[RainbowFanGirl]

Haha I don't care. I'll stop eventually

[rahul1307ghosh]

Believe me u r never old enough to them :D

[RainbowFanGirl]

Thank you. :)

[JustinCaseUDontKnow]

No, your never too old to call your parents mommy and daddy
i know from past experience overheard my mom talking to her dad
on the phone and said, "What's mommy doing?" so yes it happens :D <3

[RainbowFanGirl]

Thanks :)

[JustinCaseUDontKnow]

Your welcome :D

[oldanddecrepid]

Your getting about that age that I started calling my parents just dad and mom. To each his own though.

As long as you don't ever start calling them by their first names... I am sure they will fine!

Dad has a nice ring to it!

[RainbowFanGirl]

Yeah, I'll grow out of it soon. :P

[xXiTacoXx]

I still call them that so I don't think you're too old. It's just what you're use to because it's what you've been calling them for all your life which is really hard to switch off from. :T

[RainbowFanGirl]

You do too? Great! I'm not alone. :3

[xXiTacoXx]

I do, and they don't even care. As long as they don't care everyone else can fuck off. xD

[RainbowFanGirl]

Haha. xD True.

[xXiTacoXx]

Damn straight it is. ;o

[NotMyUsername15]

No, I call my parents that and i'm anything but a child. I say smother them with love while they're alive.

[RainbowFanGirl]

Thanks. :)

[Hans222]

Haha I'd suggest just "mom" and "dad" :D
Though if you all like it... no problem to say "mommy" and "daddy"!

[RainbowFanGirl]

:) Thanks

[goflipaburger]

I say mama, mami and mamita 😊 I'll be too old to be her baby girl.
Tho I guess I do just call my dad 'dad' or 'pa'😜

[RainbowFanGirl]

Aww that's cute. :3

[BlueEyedHipsta]

I do it occasionally more so for my dad, there is nothing wrong with it.

[RainbowFanGirl]

Thanks :)

[xxNDMxx]

No, you're not. I call my dad "Pops" for pete's sake

[RainbowFanGirl]

Aww. :)

[Reginelli]

Do whatever you want. I call my mom Mama and still call my dad Daddy. So as long as its cool with you that's all that matters.

[RainbowFanGirl]

Thanks. :)

[Reginelli]

No Problem.

[luvstoned4him]

I still call my my mother mommy and my father daddy and am 25. Its all about what feels normal or comfortable to you. I know some peole call their parents Mother and Father... seem a bit too formal for me tho.

[teawrecks]

calling your dad "daddy" is just friggin weird in general to me lol

[RainbowFanGirl]

Well if you call your boyfriend that then yeah lol it's pretty weird.

[Bards]

No you aren't. 60 years old call their parents that. Its not Something to be embarrassed about.

[RainbowFanGirl]

Haha really? :D

[Bards]

Yeah man! Like I never actually heard anyone say anything but mommy or daddy in my family except for my male cousin. Its absolutely normal and fine. It has nothing to do with maturity or intelligence. Its just something you are used to calling them!

in my opinion its way more affectionate then saying mom or dad.

[CHARismatic110]

My dad will always be "Daddy" to me. I call my mom "Mom" or "Ma" but if I'm talking about her to my siblings then I refer to her as "Mommy". I don't feel like there's an age limit on those titles.

[clampfan101]

It's probably uncommon at your age, but you can call your parrents whatever they're comfortable with.

[RainbowFanGirl]

Thank you. :)

[EmpatheticLady]

I don't think it matters. Whatever you're comfortable calling them is fine. You'll always be their little girl anyway.

[Liusanity]

I mean I still call my parents mama and papa till this day and probably will for the rest of my life. Didn't think it was too old to do so. Not gonn start calling them by their first name.

[Anonymous]

Honey, I still call my parents Mommy and Daddy on occasion. I'm 23.

[RainbowFanGirl]

Aw! That's sweet!

[Prof_Don]

I call my dad "Daddy" and I'm 30! It's a black American culture thing, I suppose. :-P

I call my mom "Mama"

[MadameJulietta]

Not at all, no matter how old I am they will always be mommy and daddy.

[Maxemeister]

Just try calling her and him "mom" and "dad"

It's not really disrespected either way. Ur good

[RainbowFanGirl]

Thank you. :)
