Lusty Parents Warned: Having Sex While Your Babies Are Asleep in The SAME BED Is Damaging Them!

Young children could mistake love making for fighting and sounds of pleasure for cries for help, according to child psychologists!

As more and more moms & dads choose to share their bed with their babies, they’re faced with a tricky decision — is it safe to have sex while your kids are asleep next to you?The answer is a resounding “NO”, say experts.

Child psychologist Dr. Gary Gelber warns the San Francisco Chronicle, “Children can misinterpret the sounds. Based on the sounds, children can think that the parents are actually hurting each other.”

Pediatrician and mom-of-three Dr. Lisa Dana agrees: “It does not seem appropriate to have sex in the family bed while a child is sleeping. I think parents and children are best served when they are more discreet about this healthy adult behavior.”

What do you think, HollyMoms? Did you ever sneak a sex session while your little one was sleeping in the same room — or do you think it’s totally inappropriate?

That is an absurd argument, the children can hear sex with the doors closed so no different exists.

My partner has children, so sometimes it happens, she is a very sexual person and so am I. The kid is only 6, and is asleep, so no big deal. When he gets a bit older, things will have to change, but for now, its not really that big of an issue.

Next time, “doctor”, come up with a more relevant theory. At ten, like one person commented, ok that is a bit strange, But a child that is like 4 to 6? No big deal.

Pretty nice post. I simply stumbled upon your blog and wished to mention that I have truly enjoyed browsing your weblog posts. After all I will be subscribing in your rss feed and I hope you write again soon!

Its gross and sick, you should not even do it in the same room as them, how in the hell could you even get in the mood knowing your child was laying in the bed with you or in the room with you. Disgusting

my parents had sex in the same bed i was in at least twice while on vacation (that i recall) i was about 8 or 9 or 10. it was disgusting. i’m surprised i haven’t stabbed them for doing that. they’re lucky i’m strong enough. child abuse i call it. get over it you say? yeah i’m trying to.

I think children sleeping with their parents is ridiculous in the first place, so if you can’t get your child out of the bed, I say commence the sex. Explain to them later that it is not a painful thing, and if they are disgusted, they can sleep in their own beds like they are supposed to!!!

I agree, go ahead and enjoy sex, even with a child in the bed. Don’t let the intrusion of your children, prevent the natural flow of human life. Who knows, it might be the night for another baby to conceive? Of course I think parents could try a bit harder, be creative, to get their child to go to his or her room, if it’s an older child. If just a baby, babies are pretty innocent, and less able to deal with being alone.

How is that people forget, it wasn’t all that long ago, that entire families all sleep in one room, often in the same bed as well, and yet families grew naturally. How could this be? Obviously, parents enjoyed their natural sex, regardless that there were children in the bed with them.

I think parents ought to have more privacy for intimacy than that. But in many countries where the entire family lives in a single room, it’s still just not realistic.

Amen to that! Who da heck has sex with their child in the same bed?!! Even if the child knows it sex and not violence do they want their kids doing the same thing?! The kid shouldn’t even be in the same room! That is downright stupid and disgusting! Gosh! Get another room folks and better yet, another bed!

if the child is old enough to understand then they are to old to be in ur bed! SIMPLE

Disgusting! You should NOT have sex when your child is in the same room, none the less the same BED! Perverted and gross. I could never do that. Ughh! Makes me wanna puke that so many people on the poll answered it’s okay..meaning they probably have done it. Poor kids.
