We have always been completely open with our kids and at 13, boy, and 15 girl - we know they are at it. As the boy said - sorry about all the tissues in the waste bin! Thye used to put a glass against our bedroom door and listen when we were making love. And...... to reverse the topic - my son walked in on me when I was masturbating one morning which made me very sorry for him, thinking that I would have been horrified as a kid if I had found my father masturbating. I apologised to him but he seemed very blase about it and hasn't seemed bothered since. I think the more open and uninhibited you are with them, then the better. LOL Simon
I consider myself fortunate to have had a mother who was a qualified paediatric nurse. Because of this I was raised in a way where all medical subjects, including all aspects of sex & masturbation were second nature, and never a taboo subject or anything to be ashamed of. I remember shortly after I had my first wet dream she started placing fresh hand towels on my bedside cabinet each day. At first I didn't understand the reason for this, but once I discovered the art of masturbation I put 2 & 2 together.
The 'education' my mother gave me was that if I masturbated, 'I'd ruin my hormones', lol. I think I'd have ruined my hormones if I didn't masturbate :mickey:
^Exactly what i was thinking! But... what is up with some of the questions O_O they're kind of... inappropriate way to describe your children like that..... ._.'
I realize the threads long dead and exhumed, but damn, OP has problems. There shouldn't be any talk needed, people who wanna get off will get off. There should be nothing to discourage it or make it seem wrong, of course things should be open. But you don't need to tell anyone to masturbate. And no matter what oprah says, there should be NO need to buy your kids sex toys, unless they ask. If your daughter can't get off, it's probably because of your sexually repressive culture that makes her think it's wrong, at some deep, perhaps unconscious level. You don't need to fuck things up even worse giving them sex toys. All you have to do is be open, honest, and let your kids do their thing. If someone walks in, whoever is at fault should apologise, and that should be it. If the child is ashamed or worried, it might be in order to mention that it's natural. Now for those who intentionally walk in or are walked in on, (seemingly like a few in this thread) that is a sign of problems.
A friend of mine has a girlfriend, who has always been open & supportive to her daughter in all matters sexual. A few months ago she had an Anne Summers party at her home & bought her a vibrator for her 14th birthday. Not only was she very grateful for the gift, but she was also proud that in this way her mother was treating her as an adult.
Well I mean seriously, half HF's member pool is some provocatively named douche with one post talking about fucking their baby brother or something... And we all know they're not fucking their baby brother, but some how telling the whole world about it makes it more real and exciting to them.
