It's dawning more on me that my dad and his sisters called their Mother, Mum...she came from the Old Country, Italy, and Mum stayed with her when she lived here.

Our generation called that woman, Mom. For the most part I believe so.

Some called that woman, by their first name. I did when I was joking around with her.....her name was Ann and I often called her Annie Bananie...

When I was pertubed with her, she got MOTHER!!!!

I believe the Old Country still calls that woman, Mum. I would think too, she would get Mother...

You, what did you call her????

My daughter does the same with me, when she is annoyed with me, it "Mother!!", but normally she calls me mom.
