It's every parent's worst nightmare. Like the one where you're standing up in a front of a crowd and suddenly realize you're naked. Only the crowd is your child - or children - and you're naked with the purpose of getting laid. We're talking about the kids unknowingly entering the den of debauchery while you are in the midst of making love. After a moment of shock and awe, the reality of the situation sets in. So where do you go from here? For starters, take cover! Grab a blanket, clothes, anything to ease the blow. How you proceed from here likely depends on the age of your curious George or Georgina. Look at the situation realistically. For the little ones who likely can't comprehend what they've just witnessed, let them know that Mommy and Daddy are perfectly okay - nobody is hurt (besides your pride).
Then distract him with a treat, a television show or anything else that will quickly cleanse his palate of what he's just witnessed. For those children who are at the age of understanding, it's time for a talk. Let them know that you were enjoying some private time together. There is no need to go into the gory details unless they pose additional questions. Handle persistent children with kid gloves. Prepare to give the birds and bees lecture. Also, make sure that your kids realize that what happens in the bedroom stays in the bedroom. The last thing you want is the specifics of your sex life making their rounds at the neighborhood pool. As a precautionary measure, always lock the door and teach your children to knock before entering.
