weirdcal Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 People who talk about themselves in the third person to their children. I only refer to myself as daddy when talking to my boy. Hes learning words and i want him to associate me with the word. It seems to work. His first word was daddy... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 People who talk about themselves in the third person to their children. I see that and raise you: people who refer to their partners as mum and dad respectively. Eg.:-Mum: "Would you like salt on your dinner dad?" Dad: "Yes please mum".Megacringe! I used to go to a friend's house when I was at primary school and his parents spent the whole time speaking like this. Awful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His first word was daddy... That's acceptable IMO. If they're toddlers and can't communicate other than babbling, I see nothing wrong with that. It's my PTTGOYN because I'm sitting across from a mother and daughter on the train, the daughter can't be any younger than 7 or 8, and the maw's still sitting there going "mummy was very tired this morning and mummy nearly missed the bus" etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like how you "used to" go to this friend's house, you're definitely better off distancing yourself from these weirdos. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 The wean's always flat-out refused to call me dad, presumably out of understandable shame. He started out calling me Gay, which I like to assume was his baby talk version of Dave, and not some preternatural prescience. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost convinced that they call themselves this all the time. Think I've managed to go almost a decade without addressing either of them by their forenames too (not that I call them Mr or Mrs anything). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
