"Piglets too posh for the rain." lol !

[@jacktress01]

it's very common in the Southern part of the United States. In the south, we're taught to call our parents and elders "sir" and "ma'am". not all the time, but if your mom says something like "Did you clean your room?" you respond with either "yes ma'am " or "No, ma'am." it's a sign of respect we're taught from a very early age.

[@Makeupaddictforlife]

jacktress i call my mum by her first name, she prefers it 😂

[@jacktress01]

Sophie.jae to each thier own, darlin'. I'm just saying if I did that my mom would be like "Excuse me?"

[@MyFondestMemories]

Sophie.jae If I had ever addressed either of my parents by their first name, I would have been looking for another place to live. Very disrespectful. To each his own.

[@BakerFrancine]

😂 Squidge's sleeping position! The pups are just too cute! 😍

[@FleurDeVlog]

😍 soooo cute! Thanks for watching! xo

[@kellywallace436]

Fleur, in the Southern states it is considered polite to reply to your elders using M'am and Sir. I am in my fifties and still use it when replying to people a generation up from me. It is expected. It shows respect for the person and shows that you are a person with manners. I would never just say yes or no to my parents. Always " Yes, M'am" or "Yes, Sir"

[@MsCraigWolfe123]

Ahhhh treacle at 4.25 is the cutest thing ever!! It looks like she's ticklish every time Fleur touches her neck

[@Zyswest]

I just love your dog's name! It always gets me, especially because of Piglet's stature and demeanor! So adorable ☺️

[@CluHangingAround]

Awww Fleur, love the way you treat the pups!

[@lynneux]

I love how wonderful you are with all your fur babies, Fleur. All three of them are ridiculously adorable, but Piglet is just beyond. I want to steal her :)

[@grubstac]

As a military child sir and mam are naturally part of mine and my brothers vocabulary! I never thought it was weird, just a way to be polite.

[@Tina-gp4rg]

I love so much walking out the puppies. Thank you Fleur and congratulations again for your lipstick, we surly try it.😘

[@aoibhinngeddis8039]

Fleur. I never ever comment on videos, I just want to say how much I love you and how much you've helped me grow as a person! I've been watching since I was 17 and now I'm 23! I'm am DEFINITELY going to,your Dublin meet up. Much love from Ireland x

[@FleurDeVlog]

Aww this is very very sweet! I'm excited to meet you! xo

[@SarahAnneNich]

Treacle looks like a puppy again after her hair trim! Such a cutie! I remember when you first got her & Squidge! Lots of love to you all, the dogs & cats included! Xxxxx

[@FleurDeVlog]

Thanks Sarah :) xo

[@MDeanrecipes]

Sir and ma'am is a polite/respectful way to address others older than you - mostly in the southern states - It's a good thing in the south ;)

[@spanisheyes123100]

I have a chihuahua cross and like piglet she's my real life teddy too! Its funny how much we can love dogs,like an actual baby! 😘😘 the new lippie looks beautiful! how exciting! 💋💋💋👍 xoxo

[@anca6934]

OMG!!! Piglet it`s so cute

[@ourwishonawing]

I love watching you interacting with the dogs! 😁 Makes me feel normal for not being the only person having full on conversations with my cats 😀 Give Girlboss a chance, I was unsure for the first two and even maybe a bit until the middle of three but by the end of it there's a real character development and it gets funny and real and also pretty interesting. I finished it today and can't wait for more, they really made me care for the characters :)

[@ZK2001-n1f]

Piglet is definitely the favourite dog

[@katyward1895]

Was so glad you uploaded. Was missing the vlogs far too much!!! Xx

[@FleurDeVlog]

Sorry for the delay! xo

[@sandramclean]

I've just seen an advert for the next season of House of Cards!!!! I'm so excited to binge on that show when it comes out.

[@JustifiedJJ]

So excited for your lipstick! It's such a beautiful, wearable colour x

[@FleurDeVlog]

Thanks Beth! I'm soooo excited too! xo

[@Joysteib]

A lot of kids refer to adults (not necessary your parents) but your friends parents sir/ma'am as a sign of respect. I am from the deep south so its really common here. Love the color of your new lipstick...so pretty. Have a great weekend ma'am!! :-)

[@shanhasplans3865]

Can't believe it's still that cold there. it was in the 90's F in Florida today! Summer already! I think kids here can get a tattoo when there under age if they have their parents permission. It's also a very Southern thing to say, Yes Sir and Yes Ma'am to our Mothers and Fathers and really to anyone in their 40's and above. Love your doggies so much - Squidge looks to be feeling really happy.

[@kristi1953]

piglet is so cute. I want to hug

[@therealBridgetDoss]

I live in the South and, yes, it's common to address your mom and dad as ma'am and sir.

[@EmilyBoltz]

I'm in northern CA and don't see it a lot hear but you will see it much more in the Southern States- it's kind of nice.

[@cecaleebynum4769]

I knew I loved you Fleur! A fellow Jeep girl ☺️ and dachshund owner 💜 love the pups!

[@katieschwalen]

I grew up in the south and I was raised that saying Yes/No Sir and Yes/No Ma'am was polite when speaking to adults. I've since moved out of the south to Pennsylvania and it seems to be less common up here. Funny how different things are across cultures!

[@jackiebrown2856]

Hi fleur great video good to see you and your sister together you look so much alike.love to see the dogs in the video.xx😀

[@xJorx]

I don't know if it's on Netflix, but I highly recommend a series called _Bron || Broen_ aka _The Bridge_ . Amazing series, first series begins with a body found in the middle of the bridge that joins Sweden with Denmark so both countries are forced to work together on the case. The acting is astounding and the episodes fly, it's a series that makes you binge-watch lol

[@_SarahElizabeth]

I love your vlogs! You're really good at it!

[@FleurDeVlog]

Aww thanks so much Sarah! xo

[@sophielumb5340]

FleurDeVlog I'm buying the lipstick

[@loriscott7655]

Several have answered your question but in many Southern US states, it is VERY common to address parents and other adults with ma'am and sir. It is regarded as respectful. I live in the Caribbean and it's somewhat common here as well. I personally wasn't brought up that way.

[@Nonielaa]

So excited for your lipstick! Pleeease restock your lip glosses on feel unique though I need more in my life x

[@soniauk4284]

Oh squidge is so funny.... Great to see all three making a fuss of you in the kitchen 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 love your videos fleur 😊 😊 😊. Can't wait to buy your lipstick 💄 I gave my mac syrup lipstick to my niece 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊

[@maywb5342]

Love the pups!! More video of them pls.

[@katie.larson96]

Sir/Ma'am is more common in certain places in the US than others. I'm from the midwest and didn't really know anyone who called their parents that, but I have family in the south who do it sometimes, and my grandpa was in the military and sometimes my dad would call him "sir" growing up, but not as a regular everyday thing. Where I come from the big tattoos were only on the more rebellious kids, but it wasn't unheard of, especially in our last year of school and everyone turned 18. Anyways, I'm super glad I've been spending this semester studying abroad in London so I've been able to get my hands on both your brow collection and now your lipstick!! Congrats on everything Fleur!!!!

[@AndreaJSeverson]

Military and law enforcement families the ma'am/sir thing is pretty common. Thankfully my military dad never expected that from my sister and I lol, but a lot of my friends did with their parents. London looked fun, but omg Oxford Street looked deserted! Lucky girls! :) xx

[@Gidget13mwa]

Being from the south here in the U.S. most of us are raised saying ma'am and sir. Not sure if that was what you were referring to?

[@NickLea]

That's really interesting - I had no idea. I'm pretty sure that is what she's referring to. Certainly, when I was at school in England I don't remember anyone refering to parents like that, the only person I ever called sir were the teachers at school

[@Gidget13mwa]

Yeah it is the way we are raised saying yes ma'am /sir or no ma'am/sir when any adult is speaking to you. However, this might not be as common as it was when I was a child. I'm old😂

[@buddhaforkath]

Both characters in 13 reasons why called their dad sir because they were scared of them & it was probably obligatory for them although it wasn't discussed. Only one time one of them said 'dad' and it was because he was almost crying.

[@Gidget13mwa]

Oh no !Rest assured we didn't say that for fear of being disciplined !! It just a southern tradition!!

[@samantarizzi248]

My dog Lexi sleeps the same way as Squidge, they are really similar character wise, but Lexi is more like Piglet when it comes to going on the walk in the rain - she rather stays home safe and dry. :) Love your vlogs so much!

[@ShaunaLynn]

Your dogs are the cutest 😭😍

[@DebraStephensslowtownchic]

In the American South, it's a sign of good manners for a young person to say Ma'am and Sir. It says you were raised with respect of older people. I still say it to the guests I work with at my place of business.

[@michxoxo1]

"Sir" is sometime used in a military background family or for a disciplinary reason. And yes I have friends here in North America that has a fairly large tattoos because some parents gave them consent or approval.

[@loleo64]

'she's put my name on some kind of list' a waiting list. that's the word you're looking for.

[@soblogmebeautiful]

I had the same thoughts on girl boss but I'm hooked now soo good :) designated survivor too sooo good!!

[@theworldwhispers]

I've seen a lot of people commenting on the 'sir' thing being common for military families (which it definitely is!), but it's also fairly common in the south still too. A lot of us grew up being told that you say yes ma'am/yes sir/etc. to your elders or people in positions of authority - even if it's just the person checking you out in a store.

[@readmorewithemma]

Being from the South in America it's definitely common to say "yes sir" or "yes ma'am" to especially parents but also other older family members and teachers, there were also some kids in my school with large arm tattoos but not very many

[@kylieeats1639]

Those mussels look so good!!!!

[@FleurDeVlog]

They were sooooo good! xo

[@jovicrazed]

I hope it will be available at MAC Canada as it looks like a great colour.

[@abrilgarcia3782]

Your MAC lipstick is absolutley beautiful! I hope someday they sell it worldwide... Congratulations, you're such an amazing women and inspiration xx lots of love from Mexico :D

[@1978Marianne]

Nice Lipstick, beautiful colour. Hopefully they will sell in The Netherlands. My doggie Spaniel also sleeps along my legs and has the most space of the bed. So funny and lovely to see you gang lying on your bed. :-)

[@1978Marianne]

The Sir-thing is a way that people speak to people in a polite way, that is my experience with Americans. My ex-boy friend was from Texas and also from the military and he always called my dad 'Sir'. In the Netherlands we call our family and friends in the 3rd person. Only to older people and strangers we say the Ductch equivalent of Sir of Madame.

[@elizabethholden9351]

Here in the south most of us are raised saying ma'am and sir, it is considered a sign of respect especially for an older person. It was considered rude to address an older person by their first name unless instructed otherwise. Was also raised in a military family and when asked questions we responded with yes and no ma'am/sir; otherwise we referred or called our parents Mom/Dad. Tattoos are still illegal to get under the age of 18 unless accompanied by parent in the state of Texas.

[@JoneeesyXD]

You should watch the crown on Netflix! I'm watching it at the moment and it's just something different and not a massive commitment

[@lydiacarels774]

I'm watching Norskov on Netflix. Só good! Norwegian serie. Enjoy! 😚

[@janiegames5371]

Netflix, try Hart of Dixie,so funny, and so good!

[@larataylor6800]

In the southern US it's pretty common to say things like "yes, sir" or "yes, ma'am" to your parents. Don't know where 13 Reasons was set but it's definitely a thing in the South.

[@jesslynnwrites]

I agree with Amber Ford, it is very situational. I never addressed my parents in this way unless I was being sarcastic or funny; when we were joking around. As for the tattoos thing, when I was in high school I don't think it was a thing. Maybe it is now 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@melovedisney1492]

In California where I live, it's not common to address your parents as sir/m'am, but when I've visited the South it has been pretty much universal.

[@Pixiwoot78]

so happy to see notification 😍😘

[@maxw1346]

Do Treacle or Squidge ever get jealous of how much extra attention Piglet gets?

[@stephaniehubbard9327]

Referring to any elder as Ma'am/sir is very common in the southern parts of the states , it's a sign of respect. I was taught not saying it actually disrespectful, but it matters much more to my grandparents than to my mother. As a child/teenager I also would never have called an elder by his/her first name, I had to stick Mr or Ms/Mrs in front of it, this was also a sign of respect, but I live in the Deep South , it's just a difference in the way we're raised.

[@kalexblue8704]

In the northern eastern part of the US we do not address our parents with sir or ma'am unless you were brought up in a very strict military family. I call my parts mom and dad for silly names mamma bear and daddy'o, which they are fine with and they don't find it disrespectful. In regards to tattoos it is a big thing for teenagers to get tattoos and sometimes several. In certain states by law you have to be 18 yrs old under 18 you have to have a parent sign a waiver form. No signed form no tattoo.

[@sarahbee27]

My cats snuggle up to me like that, I think they love the body heat. Odd comment but I love your house windows, there small but there's so many, seems to let a lot of light in xx

[@lisaprowse3813]

Where did you get the Dachshund print covers on your aga!!! Love anything Dachshund related!!! Love your blogs, even more so when the dogs(especially piglet) feature in it! xx

[@bethbergman9960]

Calling your parents "Sir" and "Ma'am" is more common in the South. Also, like the character in the show, some military kids are more likely to use "Sir", although I was a Navy brat and my parents never asked me to do this. I never really heard it until we moved to Texas.

[@Cheerleader201511]

I'm southern and I call Everyone sir and ma'am it's just the nice thing to do! I don't refer to my parents as sir or ma'am every time but it does happen and people get giant tattoos where I'm from too!

[@amberfranke8222]

the Sir/Maam thing depends on the situation. My dad was in the military so depending on the reason/tone/level of pissed off he was i would call him Sir. its a very old fashioned way to address ones elders, not just their parents. ps... im Bummed i cant get your lipstick in the US, its pretty!

[@joshuacreel3000]

Amber Ford order it from selfridges. They ship internationally

[@lindsaymayfield4773]

REALLY?!?! I've been bummed I can't get one too, I'm going to try it!

[@amberfranke8222]

Good to know, Thank you!

[@hijimmyc]

I think using sir and ma'am might be used in the south more.

[@wendywatching]

This pretty much explains it. In the show 13 Reasons Why, Alex, the only character who used "Sir" when speaking to his father, was doing so because his father was a cop. Whether it's parents in the military or law enforcement, sometimes kids do refer to them more formally.

[@amberleee1626]

In the south of USA a lot of people say sir and ma'am. Military is the same way too. As far as tattoos go, it's illegal if you're under 18. At least in Tennessee it is. Of course there are many ways kids can get them anyway.

[@Charlierose214]

if you say Sir, it's probably a military family or it could be a colloquial reason if they are from the south then it's normal. The tattoo usually you have to have a hand written permission from a parent

[@alexarodriguez7163]

YOU SHOULD WATCH LAS CHICAS DEL CABLE, ITS A SPANISH SERIES BUT HAS AUDIO IN ENGLISH. ITS REALLY GOOD, I LIKE IT A LOT.

[@highmountainmama8020]

I grew up in a military family and it was routine to say Yes Mama/Yes Sir or No Mama/Sir. As for the tattoos, where we live and with my kids, NO it is not common for kids to be covered in tattoos. So kids might have sneak little ones here or there, but not a full sleeve or a massive chest tattoo, but once someone hits 18 they can do what they want.

[@mdehocutie]

in my family it was very common to call them sir/ma'am and in my high school I had one friend w/ 11 tattoos and then many others with multiple. However, overall it was not as prevalent as it seemed in the show (I laughed at seeing that). love your videos!

[@LostwithLaura]

The Sir thing depends a lot on where live in the US, i'm from the midwest (Michigan) and it's not the norm for us. But for some of my friends in the south it is. As far as tattoos go technically you have to be 18 to get one on your own. So only people who are 18+ have big tattoos and that's about the time we leave school/start uni

[@bonniesyslo432]

I think in the southern states it's more traditional, on the east and west coast it is not. I was raised with manners and used sir and ma'am to other people but definitely not my parents, it seems really formal. In the show I think it was used in a different context though.

[@AnnaTXS]

I live in Texas and some people say yes ma'am or yes sir to their parents, but not everybody. And I think it's pretty hard now to get tattoos under 18 but there were still people in high school who had a bunch!

[@jackiebeans2689]

That's quite a bed full of critters! Don't the cats want to join? I wish your lipstick was in Canada.I love the colour.

[@gemmarichards5035]

Can't wait to get your lippy!

[@instylered1875]

Haha I have a liver & white springer spaniel as well and she does the same thing when she sleeps on my bed. She has an entire bed to sleep on yet she chooses to go on top of my legs 😂

[@angelathegamingwitch]

Aww, cute dogs!

[@angelathegamingwitch]

I'm in the US and the only parents I know who made their kids use sir and ma'am with them were military. I hate it because to me, it feels very impersonal and that doesn't make sense to me to use impersonal titles with your parents.

[@doriswaddell6489]

I never called my dad sir unless it was in the context of "yes sir" ," no sir", "thank you sir", etc . Like the previous poster, my dad was military, so it was a little more formal. But...I was always taught to answer my elders with sir or ma'am.

[@Meaganttv]

Big no on the tattoo thing here. You need parental permission to get tattoos until you're 18. I'd say ma'am sir is 50/50 in the south here

[@tabithaprewitt1435]

If you're a military family or in the South it's common place but sometimes we'll say that to be a bit of a smarty-pants! Have you thought about watching "Jessica Jones" or "Luke Cage" because they are great too!

[@Meredithlovification]

In the South, tattoos for teenagers can be mixed. I know many people who are 18-20 with a lot of tattoos. As long as you have a permission slip, you're good to get one. Honestly, it's just how you're raised: My parents frown upon them but I know a good many parents down here with sleeves.

[@pixiemimi20]

Aww Treacle was very cute looking for her dindins

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

I have noticed that in the Golden Age Hollywood films which I admire, the children often call their parents 'sir' or 'maam'. I found it odd when I first noticed it and I still do, though I don't know if it is a common trait or just a movie thing. Tattoos on under eighteen year olds here (Australia) are highly illegal, even the little ones, much less the big elaborate chest pieces. Have a lovely day and thank you for the video!

[@misslylorraine]

Yay, Fleur is cooking, haha =))))

[@Kda1015]

Referring to your parents as sir and ma'am is most typically seen in military families or deeply religious ones. The rest of us say Mom and Dad. As far as tattoos, it is becoming more common for kids to get tattoos however, it is still only a small percentage of people who have them at a young age.

[@janac5839]

It's only normal (typically) in the southern states, or it used to be. Not sure if it still is. I don't know about the tattoos nowadays. When I was in high school, 11 years ago, there was a handful of people that did get tattoos. They were usually smaller ones though.

[@norbom24]

Watch The Handmaid's Tale. Intense but very well done!

[@lvsmagic]

yeah, the sir/ma'am thing is super cultural, specifically in the south. Growing up I never did it, then I moved to Alabama where most people expect it to a degree. Got in really big trouble with this old batty woman at school when I first moved down there ~10 years old. She asked me a question and I said 'yes'. "yes what!?" "Errr.... yes I wanted to go (or whatever the question was for)". After a few minutes of this she finally angrily told me "yes ma'am" for me to repeat. Later saw my friends doing it with their parents ("You need to clean the room" "Yes sir"). It was probably one of the biggest cultural shocks I dealt with, bc people thought I was being rude when, to me, I wasn't being rude at all, it just wasn't something I did. It's also super common for someone with military parents to do it.

[@DaisyEllie1]

It's funny how much room the pooches have left you on the bed-typical. They're so cute though. X

[@FleurDeVlog]

I knowww - I'd be annoyed but they are far too adorable 😂 xo

[@LottyDotty05]

Depends on where you live. In the south (Texas) it's standard form of courtesy to use ma'am/sir. My boyfriend is from the south but grew up mostly in the North (Michigan) and he says that it's almost the exact opposite, that people find it rude because it makes them feel older. So he had to adjust he's speech when he moved back and forth. Now the tattoos, idk a tattoo parlor who allow any 17 yrs old without a parent consent to get a tattoo.

[@dl744]

girl boss is actually really funny just give it a few more episodes

[@kaitlyndonahue8947]

Girl Boss gets better!!! Keep watching :) Also 13RW: in the US most people don't have tattoos in high school (I thought that was weird too), you need parental permission under 18. I think the Sir think is mostly military or law enforcement families.

[@isabelgeddeshines4059]

ahh this was my wedding. back to work in 2 days. ugh... my husband says mam to my mom and Sir sometimes to my dad but he was in the army. But I say Mum and dad. Live in Washington state but I am British and American

[@gracecorlet6821]

Legit the conversation my sister and I had about the taboos. Especially as they aren't the actors real ones so why would they have them in high school that big.

[@tracyolson2739]

It's very common for military families and people in the south. I live in California and in my 36 years of life I have never said sir or ma'am to my parents.

[@mmarrs22]

Are you going to finish your April vlogs??

[@SavannahSedai]

No on the tattoos, you have to have parental consent if you're under 18. On "sir and ma'am" it depends, its common here in the south I suppose!

[@alanah6119]

I agree with the sir comments below and that tattoos aren't generally common but for the character it made sense! They sorta implied his family was involved in a gang (when Clay sees them beating a guy up) so the tattoos could be reasonable that way!

[@FleurDeVlog]

+Alanah R it wasn't just the one character (think you're thinking of Justin?!) but there were quite a few with big, or numerous tattoos - just found it really interesting as in the UK, you can't get a tattoo unless you're 18, so most people who got them before then would do it sneakily and have little ones they could hide or that their parents wouldn't notice, there definitely wouldn't have been people with large tattoos on tattoos on the chest/arm/neck! Xx

[@ajcb]

Hoping to have a view of your lipstick here in the Philippines but it's only available in US and UK. 😭 Primark haul soon?

[@sarahdicksen403]

Addressing parents is definitely regional/military in the US. I'm not from the south, and I've never heard anyone say 'sir' unless they're really pissed off and sarcastic lol
