Which inside joke was that?
Seriously. Read your role PM before playing.
My prefered pronoun set is "cie/cir/cirs[elf]" but they is more than acceptable.

"Mum" would imply that Haylen is silent (as in "keeping mum"), which... she's not. I'm not sure what you mean by 2).
You only say that because you're American. The phrase 'keeping mum' is relatively very infrequently used, and most people will understand the meaning. By 2) I'm just implying that America bastardised the English language and therefore the word 'mom' shouldn't exist anyway. =D
I can't understand a word you're saying!
Also for the sake of pointless argument, by "most people" you appear to mean "most British people" would understand "Your mum".
It's a dialectical difference where the American term is far less ambiguous.
Also, Haylen is not a chrysanthemum.
Ummm... as a Canadian, we use 'Mom', generally, but you'd be hard-pressed to find someone who doesn't realize that Mum means the same thing. Also, off all the things to think of when hearing 'Mum', you default to Chrysanthemum? o.o?

No, I default to "keeping quiet".
Teenage Mother isn't bad. Disturbing to the uninformed, but not bad if you know what's going on.
Everything you say and do matters. People will respond in ways you may never see. May those responses be what you intend.

This is good, but I wanted to note that FL's favourite GTKAS question was always 'Do you
enjoi
rope?'. Does enjoi/enjoy fit as well as like? Dunno. Thought it was worth mentioning though.

farsides title Mafia mum went through the same treatment. People understand the british spelling. Apart from anything else, she is british, I for one would prefer the british spelling on any title I got than the american version.

Thumbs down on the Haylen title. She's more of a hummingbird than a matriarch.
So high, so low, so many things to know.

Alex agrees with haylen's title...she's like that in real life too. Loads of teenage mum's overestimate their abilities to cope with being a parent and they have to learn quickly. Haylen overestimates her ability on mafia, and now she needs to work it out quickly too. But just like teenage mum's work it out quickly, I have every faith in her abilities here.
