*sigh* teenagers

...as in two of them "gettin' some" upstairs.

Davis and his girlfriend may have the radio on- but they are louder than they think. The other day he flashed his back and she had clawed the hell out of him.....

Now today- heavy breathing, moaning and bed springs-right over the kitchen where we are making dinner.

Oh my God help me......

How do I cope with this? I mean- I am not going to go mental on his relationship or his sex life (ewwwww) but damn.....luckily the other kids are all out of the house. R and I are getting a huge laugh out of it- but I still feel a tad icky.

ahhhhhhh- *shudder*

Honestly? Just have a simple matter-of-fact conversation with him about "appropriateness". Once the sex has started, it ain't gonna stop, but I believe you can have an adult conversation with him that it isn't appropriate to be doin' it within earshot of others.

Good advice.

or record it and play it back for the two of them. the mortification should be more than enough to at least make them more descrete

I'd just turn a radio on downstairs too. Or maybe a casual, "Hey could you two keep it down up there," if it's really bugging you. I think it's a sign that he feels really comfortable in his own home (not too common for teenagers) to be doing it while you're there. I wouldn't want to make him so uncomfortable that he feels he needs to hide his sexuality. It's totally normal.

You know, I'm just glad I don't have kids. I wouldn't know how to handle this at all.

Oh. Yeah. I did that to the nieces, didn't I?

Yeah, I had the same problem with my son. As much as I laid down the ground rules he would still break them. Sex, drugs, booze, it all went on under my nose. As he got older it seemed he didn't even try to hide it. I tried to deal with it cause I didn't want him to feel uncomfortable at home. When he started selling it out of my house I finally had to kick him out. He was 18 at the time, and he's living out of motels.

Good luck. But please remember, you can raise kids right all you want. They decide what to do with it, and if it turns out wrong you did your best.
