I just mean that I don’t often hear parents addressing their kids as “Son” except in '50s media! I’m sure it happens.
Comment on How do children address a non-binary parent?

so I don’t think it would come up with non-binary children
You’d be surprised 😅

But people do tell others about their sons or daughters

I’m in my 30’s and my Dad still refers to me as “kiddo” sometimes.

Absolutely, but then you can say “my kid” or something instead of “my daughter”. Using “child” as a title is different than using it as a pronoun standing in for their name.

Yeah my kids are mostly kids when I talk about them

Yeah. I had to carefully word my dad’s obituary to not gender me–I wasn’t out yet, but it would have added more pain to the event if I’d been misgendered in it. Luckily, I have a sibling, so I able to rework the first draft from “survived by his son ___ and daughter ___” to be “survived by his children __ and __”.
Anyways, if I had a kid I think I’d just go by my name, or any nickname they came up with. I called my binary parents by their names so it doesn’t feel weird to me.
