Wait, seriously, y'all's parents referred to each other by their first names while talking to you? That seems really odd.

Never in my life have either of my parents referred to the other by their first name when talking to me. When talking to each other, yes. To me, no. It's always "Your mother" and "Your father".

I came to consider this a common thing with the help of the fact that people in TV shows do the same exact thing! "Go tell your father that dinner's ready" "Ask your mother" "Your father and I need to talk to you" etc.

Maybe it's just a thing in America, I don't know.
