Why exactly are you afraid of your teens hearing you?

I think it's rude. No teen wants to hear their parents having sex. None. Most adults don't want to hear people having sex either unless they're watching porn. If it's loud enough to be heard during the day, in normal circumstances, from other parts of the house, then I think it's appropriate to either quiet it down or put on some music.

I'm not one of the people freaking out that it is SO GROSS or anything. It's normal, and I don't think it should be kept a secret from the kids. But I don't think it's necessary to be so obvious as to make them uncomfortable, especially since we are talking about them going off during the day to have sex. It's already obvious what's going on.

No one here is saying to be as ridiculously loud, but what is the big deal if they hear a headboard squeak or a stray moan?

Why do you find it so upsetting or assume your teens will find it upsetting to know their parents have sex?

I remember being a teen, and when you're a teen EVERYTHING your parents do is upsetting and embarrassing.

I can't see how I could get into it, knowing we are so damn loud that my kids can hear it and, if they're a typical teen, are grossed out.

Contrary to what you might want to believe, teens are going to be grossed out, even if you live in a sex positive home.

Maybe they will.

I know that I wasn't.

I know my husband wasn't.

There's a possibility they won't be.

Well, you're an anamoly. But in that case, just ask your teens how they'd like to be notified to stay away when you're having sex, and if they'd prefer you put music on.

What a sicko. No, your teens don't want to hear you having sex. And actually, you can get yourself arrested for having sex when others can hear/see you -- even in your own house.

I said nothing about want. You are letting your own issues impact your reading. If it happens it's not a big deal. I'm not going to drive myself crazy or extremely limit my sex life with my husband so the kids/teens never risk hearing anything.

I truly think you need to seek therapy.

First of all, if you're doing it only at night under the pretence that your teens are asleep and won't hear, you're probably wrong anyway.

We don't have teens but one of my friends very eloquently put it to hers: if our bedroom door is closed, and you hear a noise, don't knock to ask what it is. It is exactly what you think it is."

Guess your kids' mental health isn't important to you. Just getting fucked is.

So OP, why did you have kids then? You must of known they would eventually grow up and have to go through the teenage years.

This is truly a weird question to me.

It's not a big deal to most healthy people.

I suspect them people freaking out have deep seated issues perhaps a history of abuse.

Oh, can it with the abuse nonsense.

Yes, sex is normal and healthy. But no one wants to hear their parents having sex. Welcome to Earth.

Ew.

Ew for what? Adults have sex, kids or not. Shoot, some of you all probably were banging men and/o women during your teenage years.

I think it's kind of bizarre that OP is only willing to have sex during the day. Who NEVER has sex in the evening or the morning? What kind of bizarro schedules do you have that you, your spouse, AND both your kids are around all day?

We never heard our parents having sex. Get a grip.

I think it was fine. It actually let me know that sex is a natural part of a strong marriage. My parents are now in their early 80's and still have sex. Good for them!

How do you know so much about your parent's sex life?

HUH?

I think PP means knowing that they're still having sex in their 80s.

Yeah that's not "so much" info at all. Just one indication of their health.

No one said anything about their health. I don't think most people discuss their 80 year old parents sex life with them.

I doubt it's a long discussion of frequency, positions, and endurance. Maybe something like, "We're lucky to still have somewhat of a sex life. Most of our contemporaries do not."

I'm convinced this pp is a troll or recently out of a cult.

Ew for the whole wink wink "if the trailer's rocking, don't come knocking" implication to one's kids.

DCUM is hilarious. Mascara is vulgar. "Who cares if my teen hears sex noises?!" is not.

Erghhh even this is not a conversation I would ever want to have with my parents. (Also how do they know if their contemporaries are or aren't having sex and why would that be a discussion with their children?)

NP here. I think you are the sick one who needs therapy. Selfish.
