Um, I never grew out of it.
I never felt right changing my parents' names suddenly. Maybe I'm weird, but I only call them Mommy or Daddy to their faces, and they're not social so it hardly EVER happened in front of others unless they came to my house. When I refer to them in conversation, it's been Mom or Dad.
IDK. I never understood why you had to change the names of the two people you had known the longest just to fit in? One of the girls I went to school with called her parents Mother and Father even to their faces, and it struck me as somewhat heartless.
