I appreciate all the D this and D started as shorthand, to make posting easier but does anyone else think it probably needs to end. It’s actually more confusing half the time, especially when we get into then realms of siblings, in laws, step children.

Or AIBU?

What’s the alternative?
you can’t use names so abbreviations are fine IMO
