| Son Calls Me Mummy by kokoye(m): 3:34pm On Jan 05, 2010 |
My 2yr old son calls me 'mummy' and he calls his mom 'mama'. He does this only when we are indoors so I know it is on purpose. Also when he sees a picture of me he shouts 'daddy' so yea, he knows what he's doing. Whenever he call me mummy and I tell him to call me daddy, he screams 'No!' with a mischievous (sp?) grin on is face  . So I have stopped answering him until he calls me daddy . . except he truly needs attention.Again, he does this only indoors and we know he does it on purpose. But how can it be stopped? It's all fun but gets annoying at times. Not like I wear skirts and use make-up  |

leave him alone since he does it on purpose,he will stop it on his own,trying to force it will only make him do it more,2yrs is a crazy time,trust me i have one.gd luck. |
| Re: Son Calls Me Mummy by kokoye(m): 5:48pm On Jan 05, 2010 |
Tsiya: I tried that. He grabbed it from me and dealt with me instead  ubiaa5: No use of force. I only decided not to answer him except the issue is life-threatening |

He'll grow out of it. |
| Re: Son Calls Me Mummy by Nobody: 8:53pm On Jan 05, 2010 |
Find out what he dislikes and call him that (a cartoon character/pet name maybe?) everytime he calls you mommy. Always works. Example: I used to hate being called mummy/daddy's pet. My lil bro hates when people pronounce his name with a local intonation. If u observe and try enough, u'll find something sufficiently 'cute' so he thinks twice b4 mommy comes out of his mouth. He'll stop in a week or less. PS: yeah, u'll find that his reaction when u call his cute nickname is funny too. |

Well, he's at the naughty / stubborn stage so he knows what is right but decides not to do it with a mischievous grin. Ive tried a bunch of stuff but he ends up laughing at me cos I'm always the one who gets tired eventually. Yep. He will grow out of it. gotta love 'em! |

It would be nice to hear about the mother of this son every once in a while too |
| Re: Son Calls Me Mummy by agathamari(f): 5:21pm On Jan 06, 2010 |
he is doing it for attention. he knows if he does it you'll react. its a game to him. dont "reward" his behavior but saying "its daddy not mummy". when he doesnt get the responce he wants he will get bored of it, like any game |
| Re: Son Calls Me Mummy by zayhal(f): 6:14pm On Jan 06, 2010 |
I have a little girl who does same. She'll even say outrightly. "My mummy is my daddy and my daddy is my mummy", whenever she's mad with either parent. And tell the one she wants to annoy, 'you're not my daddy, you're my mummy". So they say those things deliberately to retaliate so to say. |

| Re: Son Calls Me Mummy by spikedcylinder: 7:42pm On Jan 06, 2010 |
Lol. Call him a name he doesn't like when he calls you mummy. See how far that goes. |
| Re: Son Calls Me Mummy by kokoye(m): 11:30pm On Jan 06, 2010 |
chika98: GO n look for some other lady's story to self-service on. Water boy like you |
| Re: Son Calls Me Mummy by chika98: 11:31pm On Jan 06, 2010 |
kokoye: I am not a man I only wonder why you always talk about your son and not your wife. Would be nice to hear about her once in awhile. |
| Re: Son Calls Me Mummy by kokoye(m): 11:37pm On Jan 06, 2010 |
chika98: Easy. Go thru my all my posts (from day one, if you can) then decide. I wonder how many times I even post though. Did not know I had a follower! |
| Re: Son Calls Me Mummy by chika98: 11:39pm On Jan 06, 2010 |
kokoye: LOL don't you wish! I always run across postings about your son. That is all I am saying. |
| Re: Son Calls Me Mummy by kokoye(m): 11:40pm On Jan 06, 2010 |
I take your posts in good faith. . . so no hard feelings. Well, if you need to know, my son makes me happy . . just like his mother.  |
| Re: Son Calls Me Mummy by chika98: 11:41pm On Jan 06, 2010 |
kokoye: Good! I just want to hear about how happy she makes you every once in awhile. Haba ! Be romantic every once in while na |
| Re: Son Calls Me Mummy by kokoye(m): 11:49pm On Jan 06, 2010 |
| Be romantic about my wife on Nairaland? naaa But for real though, I do talk about her every once in a while . . but I hardly startup threads about her. I will blame myself if I bring up something about her and some idiot posts makes some nasty comment that I cannot stand . .hope you understand I dont joke with my woman . . treat her and my sisters with all the respect they deserve, whether i'm anonymous here or not. It is my toddler son who does the funny stuff . . and it is ok for his age. peace. |
