I'm not sure why people use those acronyms anyway - I think they sound a bit twee, to be honest. It doesn't take long to type "husband"; "partner", "son" or "daughter" etc, so I'm not sure why there's a need for acronyms, apart from to confuse the uninitiated!

but it's much quicker to type dd rather than daughter

i post a lot!! and having to type all those words time and again is actually time consuming when there is an acronym..you'll get the hang of it ! and no-one is bothered if you use the full word..it's whatever you are comfortable with..not there to be confusing...!

DD Daughter
