For those of you with Step-Parents

What does (or will) your DC call your step mother or father? Do you use "Grandma" or "grandpa" for the steps? Do you have another name for it?

If you don't call them grandma/pa, does that person get offended?

Re: For those of you with Step-Parents

I let the step-parents take the lead. DH's step-mom signs cards "Grandma", so I didn't want to change that and possibly offend her.

She will call her by her first name. I think my mother would stop doing daycare for me if I had her call her Grandma. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: For those of you with Step-Parents

she calls everyone grandma & grandpa...
she's lucky to have so many people that love her!
not everyone has 3 grandmas, 3 grandpas, 4 great-grandmas, and 4 great-grandpas.

my stepson's old enough to call them by a title he has step-grandparents on both sides so he calls all of them grandma ________ and grandpa_______ there is no differentiation.

my son will call my parents nonna and nonno and call my husbands parents grandma --name--- and grandpa --name--

My stepmom of 18 years is now my ex-stepmom... she's "grandma J". She chose that.

My stepdad is "Papa". That's what he wanted.

Re: For those of you with Step-Parents

Well, being that I am estranged from my mom, my stepmother is the only gma he will know - and my stepsisters kids call my dad grandpa... so its grandma and grandpa for everyone....
