How appropriate is it for a child of a lesbian woman to call another lesbian woman "dad?'

Is it crazy or am I out of touch? Seems to me it sets up the child for some issues down the road.

Its not appropriate or healthy at all

"dad" is a male pronoun, "mom" is a female pronoun. Simple as that.

**** would be appropriate.

 

[Otis]

Weird.

Doesn't make any sense. My two moms.

 

[The Dude]

In line with what I thought. They said it was not uncommon.

Can "dad" fart on command?

I might bounce this off my lesbian aunt but I'm pretty sure she would be pretty creeped out (by me asking or the kids calling her dad).

I'm the child of a lesbian. My mom came out when I was 18 though, and I've never called any of her partners (or her now wife) Mom. I didn't call my Dad's 2nd and 3rd wives Mom either though, so this may be moot.

Calling one of them Dad is pretty stupid though I think. What is the actual mother is the butchier one (this is true in my mom's case)?

It'd be pretty annoying for both to answer every time the kid yells "mom" so it makes sense to differentiate.

 

[Captain Quinoa]

This is my Dad, and this is my William.

 

[SacramentoBob]

Completely unacceptable, but the entire situation is to begin with.

If it works for them what do you care? Do you really think the kid will grow up not knowing the difference between boys and girls?

 

[Zow]

Who cares?

 

[CurlyNight]

I guess it depends on the kid. How old is the kid? If he's well adjusted and does understand the difference and the relationship then it may be ok. While I'm all for lgbt rights I'm on the fence when it comes to small kids involved. A few years ago I was for sure no way but now with it being more out there and more accepted than it was before, I don't know. I'm not so no way about it.

My buddy's kids called his mom's partner Uncle Susan as a joke.

 

[LinusMarr]

I prefer to use the term "lennaay"

I don't think it's very common, but what does it matter?

In the lesbian relationships that I know about the kids call the two mothers different names, but they are both mothers.

My sister is twice divorced and now has a female "roommate". We call her Uncle Chris.

You can't assert the former while stating the latter.
