[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you handle this?  My home is obviously the kids home.  They drive so they can come and go as needed.  If they go to their dads and forget something, they come back and pick it up.  Or they might stop by on their way to school.  I don't want the kids to feel like they have to call or ask if they can come home but I also don't want them walking in on my adult sleepover.[/quote]

OP, just bringing this back to the start to find out if all the feedback has been helpful.  Obviously you want your kids to feel welcome in their own home.  Once you re-marry or get into a serious relationship, then it is a different calculus because they will know and hopefully like your new partner.  But in the meantime, yes, getting laid is important.  Do you feel like you have some solutions to work with?[/quote]

OP here.  This thread has been interesting.  Some of the most useful comments seem to have come from men.  I like the idea of midday interactions.  Seems like we're less likely to be surprised by someone coming home.  Our family doesn't use Life360 and it's not something I'm interested in implementing so that won't work for us.  Even after I introduce him to the kids, I still don't want them walking in on us.  I wonder how intact families handle this.  I'm not someone that is going to ask my kids to call or text before walking into their home.  [/quote]

Considering how many things you're simply "not willing to implement," I am just annoyed by you at this point. Get a hotel room or go to his place. It's not rocket science. [/quote]

Nope to going to his place.  He has the same issue.  So yes, a hotel room is a possibility.  But I come back to, how do intact familiies do this?  Do they go get a hotel room?  Do they ask their kids to text when coming home?  Do they track their kids on Life360?  [/quote]

It is what is. Having sex in your bedroom is not a crime.

I have a friend who was annoyed that she heard her step father and mom going at it. She was 17 then and she banged once on the wall between the bedrooms. The next morning, her step father told her: " this is my house, and I will make love to my wife when I want."  As teenagers we thought she was crazy and her step dad's response was hilarious.[/quote]
Her Christmas gift should have been a no brainer: a nice pair of noise canceling headphones. [/quote]
