My Child Walked In On Me Having Sex!

This is every parent’s nightmare. But it can be a teachable moment about intimacy in relationships. Although it is normal for children to go through developmental stages where they engage in sexual exploration or flirtatious behavior, it is important for all adults and older siblings in the house to maintain appropriate boundaries. Children should never engage in or watch family members engage in sexual behavior. Lock the bedroom door. Turn on loud music so that nothing can be heard outside the door. Lock your sex toys in a safe.

But What if Your Child Still Accidentally Walks in on You Having Sex?
