I don't and won't get caught by my kids doing anything like that. I'm too slick and careful. If I did I would be mortified and totally lie about it to them and convince them they were mistaken by what they saw. They'll figure it out on the internet and friends on their own soon enough.

I pity the kid that has to hear or see their parents in the act. My parents did it exactly two times ever only for the sole purpose of creating me and my bro and have been celibate ever since.

It really shouldn't be that hard to not get caught by children. Simple precautions.

I also think there's a big difference between getting caught in the act by a two-three year old and getting caught in the act by a 10+ Year old. The latter has to be horrible for all parties involved no matter how you slice it.

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.
LOL!!! When our oldest caught us, my husband told him we were wrestling.

This attitude is wacky to me. Why would something as totally normal as sex be horrifying? Maybe yah Mom and Dad I don't need to see that. But horrifying? Inducing HORROR? And why on earth would anyone want to remain celibate except to have 2 kids? Sex is normal and healthy.

This is what my mother did. I walked in more than once. I was a nosey child which I outgrew. Because my parents were honest about sex with me at a very young age, I never had sexual hang ups and didn't go around sleeping with everyone I met. My mother even had a medical book to show me the anatomy of sex. I have siblings that are 4 and 5 years younger so I had a million questions as a 5 year old.

Oh and it's sex not s-e-x. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. And kids can spell waaaaaaaaay more than adults think! I learned how to spell things forwards and backwards starting at 4 years old because people spelled around me so much. Then I started making up my own way of spelling words so I had my own secret language. My mother eventually figured some of it out and we still use it and I'm in my 40's! LOL

Remember talking to a Nigerian coworker who explained that back there they didn't have separate rooms and was often multi-generational under the same roof. They obviously didn't have the same shame about it or there wouldn't be additional generations.
