In general how a person treats you should be more important than how he/she addresses you...but i believe for a parent along with the recognition and parent like treatment they do crave for hearing that special word from their children...even in case of adoption parents will like to be addressed as father/mother from that child...its a special feeling...i still remember how ishita felt hearing "ishita mamma" for the very first time from ruhi...and to not mention how raman got angry when ishita said ruhi has two father during shagun and ashok marriage because he was not ready to share this position with anyone...even he used to crave for hearing papa from adi in the initial days...and if am not wrong he didn't use to like adi addressing ashok as his papa either
I have no issue if children addresses ishita as ishima but treats her like their real mom more than their biological mother...but with pihu this doesn't go well for me especially because she was brought in this world not to just have one more kid but with the sole purpose of giving ishita something that adi and ruhi couldn't give and can never give in future either...but now apart from the knowledge that ishita is pihu's biological mother there is nothing which is different in pihu.ruhi and adi...they all were given birthed by shagun...they all calls shagun as mamma and ishita as ishima...all of their birth certificate holds shagun and raman's name as their real mother and father...then my question is what was the purpose of a 3rd child if she is no different than the other two children...ishita already had adi and ruhi who treats her as their real mom more than shagun but still raman felt it was not enough and planned a 3rd child behind ishita's back just to give her that extra special feeling which she always craved for...but after witnessing the whole scenario right from shagun carrying the child to giving birth to raising her for more than 8 years and also having shagun's name as mother in the birth certificate of pihu the question will automatically come where is the difference?...since things can't be reversed(i.e giving birth and raising and all other stages in between ) at least ishita should get to be address as mamma/amma which if not all will give her at least something that any lady especially an infertile one craved for all her life...Else pihu will remain just an extra kid in their family who was not really needed and raman's plan to remove ishita's bannjh tag through her will remain more of a failure( though logically it will remain like that no matter what because suroogacy can never remove baanjh tag and especially at least not the way it was shown in the show) ...IMO
