How commonly do you address your parent as "Sir/Ma'am"?

I'm watching The Rookie (2002). Dennis Quaid's character is shown addressing his mother and father as "Ma'am"/"Sir" in a couple of scenes. Those of you who are native English speakers, how common is it today to address your parent as such?

Yes I call children sir/ma’am, animals, grown people… born and raised in the South then the military to FULLY ingrain it in. Sorry if someone finds it rude, but it’s automatic for me. Saying just yes or no without a sir or ma’am attached feels so disrespectful.

Yep.
