I never got how you would red flag the term, "the baby," from certain parents. I use that term for my toddler all the time. But today (Mother's Day!) my husband took the kids to his parents and when I called him and asked how it was going I asked about, "the baby" but it felt really wrong. I realized after it was because I wanted my baby with me (freedom from the kids is nice but I'm sure missing the cuddles). I'd stumbled over my words but it would have felt much more natural to call him by name. <br /><br />So I had to think about when I do use, "the baby". Ah ha! I use it when I have to run to do the laundry and ask the kids to, "watch the baby." or when I send him out to toddle around with my husband and say, "here comes the baby!" <br /><br />All times when I'm giving up responsibility for a moment and passing the responsibility over to someone else. When, in a way, I'm distancing myself from him. I wanted to feel closer to him today when I called my husband and that's why the use of, "the baby", felt so awful. And, I realize, why it would be so out of place in ANY situation where he wasn't with me and I was longing to have him back and hold him.Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05895897568006441289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-7170078122184382482013-04-14T10:41:40.442-04:002013-04-14T10:41:40.442-04:00I sometimes do court transcription and I once hear...I sometimes do court transcription and I once heard a subject refer to her abusive ex-husband as 'The Kids' father.' I couldn't get a handle on it, were 'the kids' not biologically hers? (They were.) He was an abusive husband, but 'kids' seemed to indicate that maybe he wasn't abusive to them, right? Turns out 'The kids' father' was abusive to her but not 'the kids' (and also called by their first names in the testimony) at first.

Instead, he says "My wife." Does this indicate a poor relationship? By the way, the wife always refers to her husband by his first name. Second, my daughter and son-in-law are the very proud parents of a 3 month old son. They now refer to everyone by their nicknames relative to the baby. She calls him Daddy, he calls her Mommy, they call me Nana, etc. Perhaps they are just enamored of their new positions as parents, but it strikes me as a little odd. What do you think? Thanks.

Copeland said Tuesday she believes her client, Dominique Lang, is "more of a witness than a defendant."<br /><br />Copeland says she's afraid Lang would automatically be found guilty if the same jury also chose to convict 17-year-old De'Marquise (deh-mahr-KEESE) Elkins. Authorities say he was the gunman.<br /><br />Both teenagers are charged in coastal Brunswick with the March 21 slaying of 13-month-old Antonio Santiago, who was shot in the face as he sat in his stroller. Police say the baby and his mother were attacked in an attempted street robbery.<br /><br /><br /><br />Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/04/09/attorney-for-younger-teen-suspect-seeking-separate-trials-in-georgia-baby/?intcmp=obnetwork#ixzz2QGcRGHZu</b><br /><br /><br />I am not sure if this would work, as if he was there when the gun was fired that killed Baby Antonio, he is guilty as an accomplice.<br />He is treated the same as if he had fired the gun himself.<br /><br />This smacks of distancing and minimising in an effort to protect their own client.<br />Tania Cadoganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06511272355142175684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-5542015397802809552013-04-12T12:12:17.924-04:002013-04-12T12:12:17.924-04:00OT--Peter would you please weigh in on this?

In the Old Testament God changed Abram's name to Abraham and Sarai's to Sarah, Jacob became Israel. The implication being that when a person changed their character, their name was changed.<br /><br />When Juliet spoke: "What's in a name? that which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet;" she said much the same thing. It was Romeo's character that mattered, not his name.<br /><br />I think nicknames are a combination of power and intimacy and reflect the emotion we feel for a person at a particular time.<br />Skepticalnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-81715713595871062792013-04-12T11:23:16.975-04:002013-04-12T11:23:16.975-04:00I was thinking about how my mom through the years ...I was thinking about how my mom through the years has quite often refered to me and my sister as "the twins." I remember that when we were younger, my sister and I felt irritated at being refered to bein called "the twins" by my mom. Then as we got older,(we are now 47!) my mother still calls us "the twins" and I was thinking as to why that would bother me, and I thought it bothers me because it makes us sound like little kids. Then when I was reading this article I thought about when my mom does this it's usually because she feels proud of us. I got to thinking that she has always enjoyed the attention of having twins. (My sister and I are identical, so we would attract a lot of attention especially when we were younger) And that got me to thinking that I shouldn't have felt irritated at being called "the twins" so much because I think my mom did it because she was happy to have twins. Thanks for the article. I can see this situation from a different view. I'm going to share this with my mom!
