A mum says her daughter 'hates' her name and always uses a shortened version of it - which she finds 'embarrassing and disrespectful'. Posting to Reddit, the parent explained that while she wouldn't usually mind her daughter using the nickname, she now refuses to answer to her full name at all and treats it like a 'dirty word'.
The mum added that her daughter - whose age was not specified - also corrects her whenever she introduces her to others using the full moniker, leaving her 'mortified'. As reported by the Mirror, she wrote: "My daughter goes by a nickname that's a shorter version of her full first name, like Becky instead of Rebecca (fake name but you get the idea).
"I don't mind that she does that, but I'm getting tired of the way she corrects me when I introduce her. I use her full name because that's the name her dad and I gave her, and I don't consider the nickname her real name.
"But when I introduce her, she'll immediately correct me as if I called her a dirty word or something. Then she acts cold and distant toward me.
"It's really embarrassing because whoever I'm trying to introduce her to sees her disrespecting me like that and it puts a damper on the whole mood. It happened again today and I'd finally had enough. I told her to drop the attitude and stop disrespecting me over nothing.
"She rolled her eyes and then walked away from us and waited in the car. I was mortified and ended up crying in the bathroom.
"I love my daughter but I'm at my wit's end here. I don't see anything wrong with introducing her by her real name and I think she's being oversensitive and rude, but my friend says I should see what other people think."
However, commenters were quick to jump to the daughter's defence, saying that the
