My friend and her husband were making love in their bedroom when their toddler wandered in from her room. They didn't notice her for a few moments, so she must have seen what they were doing. My friend asked, could this be damaging to her daughter?

If it is still a toddler, there is no damage done unless of course it was too graphic for such young eyes. If it was just hugging and under the blankets, the child will just shrug it off and their attention span is not that long. But then after this incident, your friend should take the necessary precaution. Make sure the toddler is sleeping or the room is lock and they got monitor on for them to hear her.

That's a very sound suggestion,ladymoonstone143. Well, I think common sense would tell that to my friend after the incident,haha. Thanks for the reply.

no, but kids now are very intelligent. they will keep on asking you questions not until you satisfied them with your answers.

I agree. My kid is like that. She peppers me with her unending "whys". Well, my friend is kind of relieved about it because her kid hasn't inquired about it yet. Thanks.

Children don't really begin to remember anything until after they are 3 years of age. Anything before then they'll never remember. If she seems afraid, they should just talk to her and let her know that's how two loving adults show their love for each other and no one was hurting the other. I'm pretty sure she'll never remember it, and she'll probably never even have the words to describe it until she is way older.

It depends on how old the girl is.. I'd guess no. She didnt know what they were doing.. She probably wont remember it if she's younger than 5 anyway.

a toddler is define from age 1-3. And my 2 year old has seen me have ****** with his dad several times. Its not damaging, they arent going to understand whats going on. But it might be an idea for your friend to lock her door before having some pushpush just so the lil one dosent accidentally wander in. Make sure the lil one is down solid for the night. set up a monitor so they can hear her type thing. But its not damaging. She wont remember it. And wont understand whats going on. It looks like mommy and daddy are hugging for the most part.

The kid is still innocent, she'll probably have no idea what the parents were doing. But kids tend to be inquisitive, just be honest to what you'll answer her, make it wholesome and she'll understand. She would probably not talk about it anymore.

Yes,you're right,myklaire. I guess it's just a matter of how you explain things to toddlers. Thanks for the reply.
