My kids spouses and SOs call me by my first name. I introduced myself that way. I didn’t meet the spouses until the kids were out of college.
I wouldn’t expect them to call me Mom, they each have a Mom. But they do call the grandparents Grandma and Grandpa; one typically has multiple Grands.
I was a still a teen when H and I got together and parents of friends were always Mr/Mrs. After some time, I was able to call my in laws Ma and Da, as my husband did, but my parents were Mom and Dad to us. How lucky we had an easy way to differentiate.
