I do, I want you to have that 'when mommys and daddys love eachother' conversation, but it seems I'm the only one, so you better listen to everyone else, there probably right and it will be less embarrasing for everyone that way.

laydee agony auntI know how you feel. Before i moved in with my partner i had this habit of walking in and out of every room in the house. The one day i was caught unlucky and saw them at it. The best thing to do is act natural around them, if the see it hasnt phased you then they will be ok with you. If you let them see it bothered you then they will want to have the 'when mommys and daddys love eachother' conversation. None of us want that lol, So just try and enjoy yourself without barging in on things like that. Noone should make a big deal out of this if you dont!!

I'm so sorry for you, that's not a nice thing to see. But now you know what adults do then you will be carefull to knock loudly next time. Your a young kid, it's not fair for you to see adult things, but you must spare a thought for your parents. If they saw you, they are probably feeling very ashamed and upset and they think it will go away if they pretend it never happened. If they saw you, they're probably feeling more upset than you.

You present as aged 13-15 (underaged) and currently living in the UK. Are you close to your parents, can you talk to either your mum or dad. If I was you I would take one parent aside and tell them in confidentiality that I saw them making love in the bedroom. Tell them you feel upset. Everyone will get embarrased, but in the end you'll feel closer to your parents than you ever did. You are growing into a young adult, one day you'll have kids and you'll be in such situations too. Talk to your mum or dad, tell them your upset and ask them if they don't mind having a honest talk with you about adult emotions, sex and anything to do with relationships. This will clear the air and put your mind at ease. So sorry, these things happen, but luckily now you know, it will never happen again.

lotus mama808 agony auntYeah, thats never a pleasant memory. When I was young, I had to stumble on the same situation (eeeewww), and the best way for me to process it was to laugh about it. Now that I am older, I see it as a great thing for them to be making love rather that arguing, and it was just them having a healthy relationship. Of course, I had to tell myself, "Well, I wasnt just brought here by a stork". The shock of it will go away. For now, just laugh it off. I was lucky enough to have a bunch of brothers I could laugh about it with, and say "EEEEwwww, gross!" lol:) That helped a lot.

You should always knock on the door first before entering your parents' bedroom. It's good manners. How would you feel if they burst in on you whilst you were playing with yourself? Embarrassed, that's how, as they now do I suspect.

scrazy agony auntAHHHH!

Oh man, THAT must've been an eye opener for you, I empathize with you having to see that hun. At least it wasn't your grandparents?

I suggest you try and push that image to the back of your mind!

Unless there's a possibility of it happening again, you may want to ask your parents to warn you next time they want to get..physical? So you can make plans to leave the house for a while - you can't exactly stop them from having sex.

I'm sorry I'm not quite sure what to tell you, but behave as you usually do - don't randomly yell at your parents "I SAW YOU GUYS HAVING SEX!" it may throw them a little off guard.

Hope this helped! XO
