Well, he didn't buy my explanation that it was just a game of Leap Frog, so I told him it is how grownups bond and make babies. The child informed us that we shouldn't do that anymore, since we're done having babies. I told him we have to because it is the law. Really, it was way less mortifying than explaining to my 12 year old son what periods are; at some point he started slowly backing out of the room.
It's why if I ever get married and have kids, I'd make sure the door has a lock, lol. No kids wandering in unexpectedly.
Ideally its always locked when you have kids and are getting frisky. But...hey sometimes ya get carried away in the middle of the night and forget to lock it...or run to the kitchen for the whipped cream and forget on your back in
Umm, okay??? I assume their parents forgot to lock their bedroom door and got caught. I sure hope that's the case because if they found out about s-e-x from someone else (like YouTube or another way), that'd be worse!
I am not convinced at all that it is worse to learn about s-e-x, as you call it, from YouTube than by witnessing your own parents at it. I learned 95% about s-e-x from Playboy magazines of the 1960's and early 1970's, smuggled in from a connection at school and hidden in my closet. By the time I got "the talk", I already knew it all.
I turned out OK, except for a weird passion for Stan Kenton, Pernod, and paneled walls. YouTube can't be much different (it is other sites that you need to worry about)
On the other hand, witnessing my parents doing The Deed, as you also call it, might have scarred me for life. That is weird, on a lot of levels.
I would tell them we were having sex, an activity that adults enjoy and use to express how much they love one another. I would not make a big deal about it.
This. There's really no need to get weird about it or lie and say you were play wrestling or anything like that. Don't people want their children to have healthy, appropriate views of sex and marriage?
Of course, you explain it and answer questions in age-appropriate ways.
"I'm sorry we didn't lock the door. We were having sex, which is something adults do when they're very much in love and committed to each other. Any questions? We'll lock the door from now on."
Later on when everyone's dressed and enjoying some cookies and milk or whatever, I would bring it up briefly again and explain that sex is private and it's not something you talk about in public and only with people you know and trust.
Happened to me when my daughter walked in. Explained that it was sex and that she shouldn't go into rooms with closed doors if she didn't want to see it again. Now she assumes that any time my wife and I are in a closed room and at least one of us is naked (usually due to showers or baths) that we are having sex, so she flees in embarrassment.
As my friend's parents once did to him: "We were wrestling with our clothes off".
You beat me to it: wrestling.
That's the answer.
