D/s with children.

I guess im lucky in the way that my Sir and I relate to each other in front of my girls...they are really young ( 5, 4 and 2 1/2) but we live a free spirited type of life so the way we are with each other doesnt give them any clues that our lives are any different then anyone elses...Whenever we need to discuss "things", we just put them in my oldest daughters room and turn on the Sprout channel and they stay put until we are done...As they get older, we may or may not let them know about our life IF they can keep their mouths shut to my VERY VERY religiously vanilla parents in law and that entire family.....

As the parent of two step-children (now grown, but I watched them grow up) and two younger kids, I will say that kids don't want to know that you even had sex more than was necessary for their procreation, and not that if you could've done it in a test-tube. I would say, keep your sex life away from the kids, period. Vanilla, a little kinky, 24/7 M/s, edgeplay, it doesn't matter - they don't want to know.

Now, letting them know by the general environment that you are sexual creatures and that you do have a private life that doesn't include them is healthy and good for them, even if they think they'd rather you were made of balsa wood - but details? Leave them out.

I don't think parents should talk to children about their sex lives. Nor do I think children want to know about it.

(This doesn't mean I don't think children should be informed and given a very responsible "sex talk" I just don't think one needs to share their personal experiences when it comes to the bedroom).
