My wife says this happened twice when she was in high school. 30 years later she's still (clearly) a bit freaked out by the incident because it's come up a few times ![]() |
Meaning her parents of course |
This is a good point. I'm going to use it... |
You have not been in my house recently |
Wow, your weekend morning ritual sounds fun! My DH just grabs his phone first thing and it’s impossible to get his attention away from it. Jealous! |
About 15 years ago we were doing a big construction project at our house and our youngest daughter slept on a bed in our room for about two months which clearly posed a problem for our sex life. I arranged many sleepovers for her and it was so easy once I told the other moms the reason why. The only problem was my daughter got tired of sleepovers! We were all very happy when the project was done. |
I certainly enjoy it! I’m usually pitching a tent by the time I have to go get a second cup for us. |
And, I’ll also say that she wears very little to bed. I won’t miss our weekend morning conversations and skin on skin time without good reason. |
That is odd the mom brought it up. Normal people with etiquette and social skills woukd know better. |
This. I recall that there was a thread about embarrassing parenting moments on DCUM. One woman said her phone vibrated and her son said loudly "mom, your phone sounds just like your special toy." It happens. You just have to laugh about it and think well good thing I wasn't giving him a blow job!!! |
Yeah, I have to agree. I would never repeat that story to someone who was a regular friend or acquaintance. If it was my best friend, I would tell her what her child said while laughing hysterically. Did this mom laugh as she told you or was it with a straight face? How close are the two of you? |
Wait... her parents walked in on her having sex... or she, in high school, walked in on her parents having sex? |
Must be nice! |
If a kid told me that, I wouldn't think it was sex-related. My young children rope us into games of pretending we are a family of various animals, TV/movie/book characters, etc. |
In our house, that would have meant one -- two sleepovers, tops. But - aside from my need to chime in with another 'woe is me, I don't have sex' comment, your larger point is great. People have sex, and it's great that you didn't feel unnecessarily embarrassed so you could get a little help from friends and neighbors that allowed you & your spouse some alone time. |
