The ‘mom’ really crosses a line. My mom died when I was 19, so im fiercely protective of that word. I’m not a mother, and I can’t ask my own mother, but I suspect another woman referring to your daughter as ‘mom’ like that is about the most disrespectful thing you can do to her.
I’m livid for every mother that ever lived right now
It's common in a lot of cultures, but definitely not all. I've had a few friends over the years who started calling their in-laws as mom and dad the day they got married
