How about setting some parameters for the 10 year old. Like bed at a certain hour, don't come in mom and dad's room without knocking - that kind of stuff. I mean, gee, it seems to work for most people and what's the big deal if he hears some moaning/smooching/noise?
My girls have heard things in the past. They think it's gross - I tell them to keep that attitude.
Right.....Thats basically it guys. He wants sex during the week. Summer vacation is here, kid is at home. He`s 10! Even with the bedroom door locked, I`m afraid that he will hear something that he doesn`t need to hear.... He`s a bit frustrated.
I send my kids to the park, outside to play or ask them if they could call their friend down the street and play at thier house for a while. Either that or give them $10 and tell them they can go to McDonalds and play there. At least then you get a good 45min.
When they were younger, the neighbors house still worked....and in my current house (2 story and pretty large) I could tell them to play video games in the basement for a bit which put them A LONG way from the bedroom.
Other tricks? Turn a fan on in thier bedroom, it creates cover noise.
Also, just check out sound a sleeper your kids are. Turn up radio etc. LOUD in your room then go in their room and see how much can be heard. Might put you at ease.

Man, you sound like one of the most bitter people here Mr. Huckleberry.
Does that involve machinery that will drown out any sounds coming from the house?
