Dear all,
I do sometimes use 'name' to replace 'I' as the pronoun in my sentence.
I use it mostly in conversation with my kids (I'm trying to communicate in English with them).
For example: "Daddy doesn't like it that much, ..." instead of "I don't like it that much, ...".
But it just feels awkward sometimes, as I, as the 1st person, using 'does' in my sentence.
As a non-native without much interaction with native English-speaking environment, I'm wondering what is the correct way to convey such message as described above.
Thanks in advance,
