[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not surprised the boys were changing without a chaperone. I am not surprised that high schoolers were having sex in the locker room. It is unfortunate that the kids had to walk in on it. That’s pretty much the end of it. Kids have been walking in on teens/ adults having sex since the beginning of time. [/quote]

The kids who witnessed it had some not insignificant issues with anxiety and nightmares after. So, it’s not just “unfortunate,” it’s harmed those children. [/quote]

My take on it was the kids were feeling very guilty, like the whole thing was their fault, because swimming was canceled when they (correctly) told their parents what they’d seen. And it was made into a big deal (probably correctly, hard to say). Their parents were very upset. These things also contribute to feeling anxious and having bad dreams afterwords. I’m sure you’ll say I’m trying to minimize their trauma. But if it was consensual sex, and the kids saw it by accident, this is something that happens all the time, all over the world, since the beginning of time. Nobody was abused and it shouldn’t be treated as such. [/quote]

Stop trying to normalize this.  Eight year olds should not be seeing high schoolers having sex in a locker room.  It’s not okay, and it likely is traumatizing to them.  [/quote]

Of course it’s not ok but it sounds like it was accidental and it sounds like the parents and the school are acting like these kids were being forced to view or participate or something terrible like that. Teenagers have sex! Usually someplace other than in their bedroom, because their parents don’t let them! Sometimes someone will accidentally see that. It should be treated with care and the kids should of course ask questions etc to their parents but like…. Tell me you understand that people accidentally see other people have sex sometimes? Don’t you know anyone who accidentally walked in on their parents? It’s not uncommon![/quote]
