Re: What do u and your DH call ur inlaws

My DH calls my parents Mr. and Mrs. "D". I try to avoid calling my in-laws anything...we don't have a good enough relationship to call them Mom and Dad and I don't feel comfortable calling them by their first names.

Re: What do u and your DH call ur inlaws

My parents want DH to call them mom and dad, but so far he hasn't called them anything b/c I think he isn't ready to say mom and dad yet. MIL said I can call her by her first name and FIL hasn't said anything. I haven't called him anything.

Re: What do u and your DH call ur inlaws

We both try to avoid using Mom and Dad because it still feels weird. But that's what we use.
And actually I call his step-mom by her first name because she asked me to (she's only like 10 years older than me! Chat Icon )

I call my MIL by her first name, but only because she totally busted me on it. She said I never call her anything...she doesn't care what I call her, just say something Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I avoid it with my FIL because I don't feel comfortable calling him by his first name (Valentino...it's too weird for me) and definitely not Dad.

Re: What do u and your DH call ur inlaws

We each call them by their fist names. I call his Grandma, "Grandma" and he calls my aunts and uncles "aunt" and "uncle". I call his aunts and uncles by just first name cause that's what DH and his brother call them.

Funnily enough, DH and I had this conversation last week. For as long as I can remember, my dad called my grandparents "mom" and "dad". I asked what his dad called his grandmother. FIL calls her by her first name.
I can't picture calling my IL's mom and dad but maybe that will change once we have children.

I call them by their first names - I wish I could call them mom and dad but I just couldn't do it - it felt too strange! Maybe once we have kids it will change.

My DH had a hard time calling my parents anything until the other day (after over one year of marriage) he finally called my mom on her birthday and said her first name. Chat Icon
