DD is English, but has my American accent and calls me Mom, which I like and prefer. We have decided to homeschool her for right now, she is 3, born in July. The plan is for her to eventually move to a primary school. I've been getting my lesson plans together and preparing the supplies and things I will need and I came upon using Mum vs Mom. My DH thinks we should teach her Mum because that is what they will use in school, but I think we should use Mom because that is how she says it and what I like to be called.
If she goes to school will she be told she is wrong for using Mom and be "corrected"? If they are making Mother's Day cards or talking about Mothers will she forced to use Mum?
