IIRC, John called Dean "kiddo" in the teaser to the pilot. I can't recall Dean ever using that as a name for Sam, though.
Everything would go along swimmingly, and then Jack would suddenly call Daniel, Sam and Teal'c "kiddies." WTF, man. W.T.F.
That sounds somewhat perverted, doesn't it? I think that Jack did refer to Jack and Sam as "kids" maybe once. I'd have to go and watch it again, but I think it was in that episode where Jack got the pole thing stuck through his shoulder pinning him to the wall and it turned out to be a weird virus thing and Daniel figured out how to communicate with it and Sam was awesomely assertive with Hammond... I can't think of the episode title, but I think when Daniel and Sam had stayed up all night, Jack came in and told them they had to get some rest and be ready for their mission that day or something like that. I could be wrong about that, though. Hmmm...
Even so, I can't see him calling them "kiddies" like that. *g*
It really wouldn't. Sam's a sensitive soul (or at least he was), sure, but there are limitations. I would ask people just think for a minute or two before they make either Sam or Dean burst into tears.
I like that they both cry onscreen at various times, but we've never seen them break down sobbing...well, Sam was really crying a few times (John's "funeral" and at the end of Heart), but even then he wasn't really sobbing or anything.
I think that Dean cried in private somewhere, though. *g* But still...it can get a bit much if it's overdone in fics. I love crying boys, but they've shown that while they can get emotional at times, they usually hold it together, especially in front of other people.
In some stories, authors could have Sam or even Dean crying believably (for me), but in other stories, it feels like they're crying all the time for no reason. *g* I'm not sure if I could clearly state what makes it work for me, though, and why it doesn't sometimes.
