Bolade005: But why are children allowed to call their mother by name and not mummy, our Nigerian tradition and culture does not encourage it o, abi.....or better still a pet name that he/she hears from the father |

My 3 children all called daddy first. This is the norm - babies form their first words with their tongues against their palates, which is easier than words formed by sing their lips. |

tobodex: Babies can't form words with their lips in their early months of speech development, so anytime between 5 months and 20 months. Some toddlers are just starting to form "M" words as late as 26 months. 2 Likes |

tobodex: The father is to blame for this. babies tend to say the words they hear most often and since the women are likely to address their husby as Dad Davis or whatever while most men address their partners by their names . 3 Likes |

Siena: My 2 boys called daddy first. The second who is 26months now called "mummy" "meme" for sometime. The funniest is "uncle". He says that completely without opening or moving the lips. He talks now but only the family can understand him. He stills makes complete sentences without using the lips. He always repeats after his older brother. His clear words are few, like mummy, daddy, poo, pee, tea, car nd others. By the way poo and spoon is the same when you hear it from him. |

My 8 month old son calls me 'oma' whenever he is crying and call his daddy 'dad or baba' despite the fact that I didnt teach him to call mummy |
Re: Who Does A Baby Learn To Call First- Daddy Or Mummy; And Why by adanny01(m): 6:06pm On Mar 20, 2016 |
HateU2: The truth is that we all miss the parent that is not always available. When i arrive after spending months away, my children dont want me off their sight. Its not easy to leave them behind and its not easy for them to wake up next morning and cant fund daddy for 5 days to 3months. Wifey keeps telling them about daddy and how much he loves them but she forgets to talk about how much she loves them. They end up yarning for daddy and when he comes mummy becomes jealous. 3 Likes |

tobodex:Seriously I'm not responsible for my daughter calling her mom by name. As a matter of fact, I'm not always around much, there are times I go for a month without seeing her and yet she calls me Daddy. My wife doesn't even worry, I'm even the one trying to correct her and she's improving. I'm always like "go and call mommy for me", go and give the phone to your mommy", "tell mommy to come". My mom was around for a while and you know she calls me by name naso my daughter begin call me by name too. Now she calls daddy more and call me by name once in a while, I think that's subliminal. 1 Like |
