I'll weigh in here because "storbror" is totally wrong. There is no global or cultural rule as to how children address their parents.

Parental and peer address implies characterisation and back story.

1) A female teen refers to her mother as "Mommie Dearest" . . . What does the address tell you about the relationship?

2) A male teen addresses his father as "sir" - What can you glean from this?

3) Suzanne gave birth to Katrina at age 14. The characters refer to each other as "Sue" and "Kat". What is the practical nature of their relationship?
