When talking with other people about your mom or dad do you just say "mom" or "dad" or do you say "my mom," or "my dad" As in "I went shopping with my mom today, " vs "I went shopping with mom today."
The only time I don't use "my" is when I'm talking with my brothers. In conversation it just sounds off somehow. I mean, if you placed your mom with your brother you wouldn't say just "brother."
