I have noticed that...?

Question

when parents call there kids "pet" is always mother to son never

mother to daughter

or

farther to son

farther the daughter

why is that and what does mean

Answer 1

I never called my son, "pet".  That is just weird.  I would look at the mother like, "Get a clue lady," he's not your pet!

Answer 2

I do not know. I have never heard of that.. and what did this have to do with STD's? You'll probably get more answers from another section on yahoo answers like family and relationships.
