It's akin to grown adults calling them "mummy and daddy". Each to their own but a tad juvenile.

There's nothing wrong with mum and dad. I'm not suggesting we should call them by their first names when we're older.

Mummy and daddy is just like the childish version.

Oi, my daughter calls me Mammy...online and in private.
She tends to call me mam if we are in company.
Son calls me Mammy when he is off his head.

Well at least they understand it and adopt their language according to the situation.

I was friends with someone up to the age of 18 who would still adopt a "baby voice" when he would try to get round his mum. It was EXCEPTIONALLY creepy to witness.

It's not something I've seen someone my age do with their parents but I don't think it'd be that big a deal.

It did a bit. My daughters would no more sit on my lap than fly in the air

Iv not seen hide nor hair of the brats since boxing day neither

Its ok folks. I just created the thread because I found it strange adult daughters sitting on Johns lap. Everyone has their own opinions on it some find it fine. Thats what forums are about but we must just respect we are all different in our views

Thank you but it was many years ago now xx

Not really tbh. My sister still sits on my dads knee (usually when shes arselicking to get something ) and I will sit cuddled up to him sometimes. I think its nice that even when the kids are adults they still have a close relationship with their dads tbh

The Barnes household is very strange.

"they are still my babies and sit on my knee"

I wonder if he still baths them?

or has he realised that they are adults now?
