What Do You Call Your Mom?

[arwalden]

Poll question: What Do You Call Your Mom?

It's mostly "Mother", but sometimes "Mom".

However... At a couple of large family gatherings, I've found it necessary to call her by name, since shouting out "Hey MOM!" makes every female parent in the room turn around to see who's calling them.

edit: added "Mama" (how could I forget? Sorry!)

1. I call her "mom" unless I'm ticked at her - then she is "mother"

:eyes:

17. I refer to her as "your Mother"...

...to my brother when I'm ticked at her and therefore not speaking to her. Of course, he beomes, "Your son..." if I'm ticked at him and not speaking to him.

I think they all refer to me as "that bitch...".
