First off, I am still relatively new here, and I hope I don’t offend anyone with any of these questions, but some things I’ve been wondering lately. And that I’m probably going to have to work through before too long.

Same sex/gender parents, do your children call both of you the same or different names?(mom/dad etc.)

Trans* parents, if you had children before you came out, did what they call you change? I’ve only been aware of one instance of this situation and the kids still called her dad.

    Two father household here. We are Dad and Pop. We’ll use it until they’re old enough to want to call us something else if they choose to. We felt it was important to establish unique names for each of us from the outset to avoid the situation of having to use our first names later on, which is a personal choice.
