our 7 YO daughter walked in on us last night,we both forgot to lock the door. I'm avoiding her today so she can't ask me questions,while trying to think up a believable lie to explain what she saw.
I hope she's not damaged from what she saw.

Oh yeah, I remember my son[then about 5 yo], walking into the bedroom and said "Hi guys, What ya doin?" Definately took away the moment.....no lasting damage. I think he forgot about it by the next morning. Course we were semi covered up, were you? maddog

If you have kids it is bound to happen eventually - I think she will live through it. You (or your wife) just have to answer her questions at the level of maturity she is at - afterall, it is a normal part of being married and how she got here.

Been interrupted by the dogs a few times but no discernable problems. Just tell her you were wrestling...unless you were doing something else.

If you will be more specific, I'm sure I can help you more.

This is the place to interject the oldie about the boy and his father who were out for a walk when they saw two dogs engaging in matrimonial activity. When asked, the father explained that they were making puppies. At a later time, when the son wandered in upon the folks engaged in close order drill as approved of by missionaries, he inquired as to what was transpiring. Father's quick thinking resulted in a reply that they were making him a new brother or sister. To this, the son came back with, "Well, turn her over. I'd rather have a puppy."

A couple of years ago I was helping a friend move house, and we were struggling up the garden path carrying a large farmhouse table, and his little girls comes running out the house, shouting:
"Mommy says she wants it in the backdoor...."
His wife coloured up nicely and me and my mate creased up, fit to drop...Of course the little girl had no idea what she'd said and kept asking what was so funny, which made it even worse!

I hope she's not damaged from what she saw. You have got to be kidding!!!!! Don't avoid her and be honest and up front about it. It's what mommies and daddies do when they are in love and how she got here. You'll be surprised to find out she has more understanding about sex than you realize. You don't have to give her the triple XXXX rated version but don't hide about what you do as if what you are doing is somehow wrong and evil. She'll be more damaged if you lie to her than if you are honest and up front about it. Of course, if you are a Christian than sex is probably wrong, evil, and sinful to you and you will have trouble with explaining it to her which is why you are having a problem with your conscience now. For us Pagans we don't have that kind of baggage so explaining to our children about sex under the conditions you have described is easier.

Reminds me of a joke I heard years ago. 3 women setting in the Dr.'s waiting room for a checkup. All were pregnant. They started talking about the sex of their child. The brunette says " I know it's a girl, because I was on the bottom." The red head says "I know its a boy, because I was on the top." The blonde breaks out crying and screams "OMG, I'm gonna have puppies!" maddog

Pete, further evidence that we are two peoples separated by a common language. I love the phrasiology. (Part of my great enjoyment of the Herriot books is using context to try and figure out just what in God's name some of the words/phrases mean.) Best, John

So long as weren't dressed as Batman and the old lady wrapped in Saran Wrap, you should be good.

A buddy I used to work with had his 2 or 3 year son catch him and his wife in the act one morning. He explained to the boy that mommy and daddy were playing bucking bronco. They were under the covers and the kid couldn't really see what was going on so daddy let him hop on and go for a ride. It's a little bit twisted but as far as his son knew it was just all innocent fun. True story.
