They're from Colorado. I suspect annunciating "Mother" when you've never heard the word pronounced isn't exactly easy. That might be why it sounded like he said "Mama," it might just be his pet word for her. Unless he called her the b word I don't see why what he calls her is a problem to anyone.

Is he even from the South?

Doesn't matter. I was responding to your comment that a grown man should not call his mother "Mama." Not true.

Both my parents, born and raised in the Midwest, called their Mom's Mama.

I'm also from the Midwest, and although I never knew them, my mother always referred to her parents as Mama and Papa as did her siblings, both male and female.

It's quite common in Colorado for men to call their moms "mama".

Margie needs to tell Luke that grown men don't say "Mama".

My 9 year old son still calls me mama. For whatever reason he never called me mommy and doesn't call me mom. I don't know why. I think I will be sad the day he doesn't call me mama. But if other kids would make fun of him, then I guess I should encourage him to stop. But it will be sad.

I called my mother "Mama" and my father "Daddy" all their lives - and still do when I am telling stories about our life together! I don't understand what the problem is -

my husband calls me mama, always has.

Dylan stopped calling me Mommy a long time ago. I told him he had to continue to call me mommy or he would be punished. LOL he didnt work. Since he knows I love to hear him call me mommy he will write it in cards to me :-)

Pamy, I'm surprised my 8 1/2 year old still calls me Mommy. I love it!

I call my Mom Moo. That's the nickname she ended up with. I think Moo was a morph from us calling her Mommy when we were little, some time or other it was MooMoo. Then it just came down to Moo.

Everyone in our family has a nickname.
