The name "Mom"

I was wondering, does anyone’s skids call them mom? When I became pregnant with my first child, my skids asked what the new baby would call me. I explain that I am the new baby’s mom and that is what he would call me. My SD asked if it would be okay for her to call me mom. She had already started calling me mom on occasions and I wasn’t quite sure what or how to feel about it. BM mom freaked, which didn’t surprise me one bit and to this day has never dropped the issue.

Feeling like the bad guy

Every Saturday my SS has a soccer game, and my husband makes a point to attend all of them. However this Saturday I have a memorial service to attend and I would like my husband to be there. My SS lives with his BM primary and comes to see us every other weekend, this weekend he is with her. When I expressed my feeling to my husband he said he feels like I'm making him choose between his son and me. I hate feeling like some how I'm the bad guy because I need my husband. I feel like my husband and his ex-wife are the one that broke their family up.
