I'd guess whatever your thoughts of your parents 'doing it' would equate your children's thoughts of you having sex as well. | |

Posted: 6/9/2007 7:26:13 PM | Well, first of all, they wouldn't say " just be home by midnight" because they don't live at home with me and they know I follow my own timetable.
Secondly, they wouldn't eeeuuuuwwww old people sex because my kids know I'm a healthy, vibrant woman who thinks sex is a great part of life and a loving relationship. So, that being said .......My kids would say....GO FOR IT....... Mom!!!!! They would encourage me.
But, it would be in terms of being in a relationship that is making me happy........they wouldn't want to know if there was lovemaking involved nor should they need to know. We are respectful of each other's private lives and my sex life is not open for discussion with them.....just as theirs isn't with me.
We have better things to talk about.

And I know that if they did, they'd say eeeewwwww.
Nobody wants to think of their mom or dad doing it. It's just not the picture they want to have in their heads!

Posted: 6/9/2007 10:43:18 PM | | My kids don't know anything about me being on any dating site. Don't know what they'd think, but when I was a teenager I walked in on my parents once while they were doing it. It was so icky and disgusting, and embarrassing, I still cringe when I think of it 40 years later. | |

Posted: 6/10/2007 5:42:51 AM | | I know exactly what my kids would say! It's the same thing I tell them when they give me TMI! "I'm sending you my Therapy bill!" | |

Posted: 6/10/2007 7:52:29 AM | Iv'e had.....Your not going out dressed like that.
What time do you call this mother?
Too much information!
I cannot discuss sex with my children at all. They are adult and THINK I am past it so of course I have to pretend I enjoy knitting in my rocking chair...... | |

| What would our kids think
Posted: 6/10/2007 7:57:54 AM | I have 2 grown sons and they want NO INFORMATION! Have been asked questions and accidentally have given TMI, but didn't know I was actually doing that. And not always using the correct language (hint: don't use the words "hooked up" unless you really want your children to know you've had sex), you could be misleading 'em. I thought "hooked up" meant "had a date"...it doesn't.
Generally my boys say "whatever makes you happy Mom". But, then one of 'em wants to know where I'm going, who I'm with, what time, when home and CALL him too.
Geez, you'd think I was his 15 year old daughter or something.

Posted: 6/10/2007 8:08:23 AM | I can remember years ago, when I was first married. That was when I realized on a conscious level, my parents did have sex. My parents never showed much emotion to each other infront of the kids. It was an ewwwww moment for me. But I do not agree that if you find the thought of your parents having sex as "ewwww" you think the same way about your own sex life.
I love sex. It is an important part of my relationship. I would like sex at least 6 times a week(even God rested one day). I am also a realist, and with time constraints and my circumstances it is just not possible.
My daughter accepted my activities as I did hers. She was 26 and it was not something discussed regularly. But I was able to give constructive advice about bf and relationships when she asked because she knew I knew something about them. She is the one who came up to me and gave me a big hug when I was sobbing because my then bf broke up with me. Because I was dating at the same time, I always noticed more of an acceptance of my actions when she was dating someone. If she had just broken up with someone she was not as accepting. Ain't love grand. | |

Posted: 6/10/2007 8:38:18 AM | Tell me mom,,,did you let him tie up your tatas? good one!!
This dating site? Ok, my children would say "oh no, what is she up to now?" !!
All my children know that I never lived a life of non-adventure or anything coming close to boredom.
Not refering to sex in that last sentence... they don't know my sexual non-boredoms, ha.
Two of my kids would tend to go into a bit of protective mode, try to give a lecture, (about internet), and would only be able to get one sentence out before I'd give them "the eye' and say thank you but hush up.
My other biological child would say, "whatever.. it's your life to live, Mom, have fun".
As for discussions about sex... none of them want to hear it. I'm not interested in their sex talk either, unless one has a problem and they are seeking advice.
If I were to go out 'on a date'... each of them would call within a few days and ask if I had fun.
If they knew I've been talking to a Man on the phone and feeling connections... they'd be calling also, wondering if I was still here! LOL LOL | |

Posted: 6/10/2007 2:42:59 PM | My son who will be 17 next month...thinks its great that I am finally getting out and meeting guys and being happy...he was actually looking at the guys who viewed my profile and then would read them with me and say "mom, check him out" or "ooh, yuck mom".....He would say to me be careful and tell me not to do anything sexual yet lol, then of course roll his eyes at me lol
OMG..he would laugh like hell about the "tatas" lol..then look at me and ask how the hell would they do that lol | |

Posted: 6/10/2007 2:58:48 PM | Definately "just be home by midnight "
My daughter would much rather I wasn't alone, but she would also not be too fond of online dating for her old mom. She has turned into the worrier and is home every night with her husband and 2 kids and worried if I am out past 8pm. LOL - I love the switch in roles we have now, payback is kinda fun!! | |

Posted: 6/10/2007 5:20:11 PM | ..I have two daughters and a son. My eldest daughter has absolutely no problem with me being on a dating site...she wishes the best for me. My 18 year old just kinda shrugs and says "yeah right, Mom with a boyfriend....the son wants no details haha

Posted: 6/10/2007 6:05:10 PM | My dad moved in with a woman when he was 67, finally married her at 79.
Just yesterday, my friend who will be 67 in a couple of months, wondered if they had sex. I reminded him that they were the same age as he is now, so I'm quite sure they consumated their relationship...and...with the aid of blue or gold pills, hopefully their marriage as well. When he asked me if the thought of them having sex bothered me, I responded with a simple no. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside when I saw my parents walking down Main St holding hands. I felt that same warmth watching my Dad and Stepmom touch each other as they spoke and gazed lovingly into each other's eyes. Them having sex was just an extension of that love and caring, so it also made me feel warm and fuzzy.
My kids know that I date, they know when I've been in a relationship and they know that I have had sex within those relationships. They certainly don't want details, but we have never shied away from discussing any subject, including sex and sexuality. | |

Posted: 6/10/2007 8:54:35 PM | Heck, my daughter points out good lookin guys to me (my age of course) and yes, she knows that I am on POF. She was the one that told me about it. MT | |

Posted: 6/10/2007 9:56:38 PM | | A friend of mine is an occupational health nurse---they had a chlymidia (sp) awareness event at work. She came to mine and got my 19 year old son in a room alone...gave him a package with condoms and information packets in--the condoms were varied...on keyrings, glow in the dark, flavored. He was horribly embarrassed, but thanked her. She told me it was bad enough then, but when she pulled out another one and told him---now, I'm giving your mother the same, he almost died! | |

Posted: 6/11/2007 6:57:47 AM | I got the biggest laugh yet, my daughter, who is a nurse, said to me "You know they have an injection for HPV." Very thoughtful of her, but although she knows that I have met a few from POF , that sure wasn't on my list of things 'to do'.
Although I never discuss my intimate life with my girls and they never discuss their's with me, we have a mutual respect for boundaries. I think that if I found someone who really made me happy, they would join in wishing me well. Sometimes I think they don't think of parents as being 'sexual beings' or they just don't want to go there.
I think it is nice to know that your children care and want you to remain 'safe' as we try and find someone who will make us happy. | |
