from where I'm from? we don't even call out parents mum or dad. 

you call everyone older than you "sir" or "ma'am". Nothing pathetic about that. it's just respect and or culture. 

Not sure what this has to do with education anyway.

Because sir and madam (the non contracted version of ma'am) are the terms of a by gone era. At least in parts of the world that have understood how those terms were used to distinguish those who serve and those who command. 

I will buy the game as I love the GoW universe, but they better be consistent and when they meet up with women in the story arch they are respectfully referred to as madam too. Otherwise it's just a mish mash of time cultures, which then pulls the gamer out of the immersive narrative.
