When the kids call their parents by their first name, it's mean the kids trying to be friend with their parents.

I think this depends on culture. Like in some countries if the child calls their parents by their names it is considered rude/ disrespectful.

well it depends like if they call their mother by their first name because their father must be calling their mother by her first name so habits come from that.

Some kids do it because their parents didnt raise them to call them mom or dad or the kids dont care and rather call them by that. Sometimes youll be surprise the parent taught them to call them by their first name

Most don't, but if they do it might be for something related to respect or preference, it all depends on the family and how they were raised really

I believe that it is their personal choice and until they're not your kids you shouldn't be actually worried about it if they're alright with it.

It can depend, some parents allow their kids to call them by their first name, and sometimes it's the kid disrespecting their parents.

When a child first utters a parent's name, in lieu of "mom" or "dad," he/she is taking the first unchartered steps toward independence.

Kids tend to call their parents by their first names when feeling like they aren't close enough anymore to call them parental nicknames, or when they feel like they are getting to old to do so. It could be from a comfort stance or from a perspective age stance.

I sometimes call my parents by their first name because they are more responsive to that then just 'mom' or 'dad'. Especially if I need to get their attention immediately.
