How to refer to parents in a story
I'm writing a short story told in the first person. The narrator mainly refers to his parents as Ma and Da, but sometimes as mother and father. Does that matter, or should I be consistent and only use Ma/Da or mother/father?

But whatever you do it must be consistent.
