15yo DD heard DP and I having sex

We are sooo embarrassed and I imagine and totally understand that DD is equally embarrassed. We were in the middle of DTD when DD's bedroom door opened. Seconds later there was 5 large bangs on the wall. We were mortified and of course stopped immediately.

There is no excuse, other than DP and I don't live together and emotions overcame us. Additionally DD is always with me; she doesn't see her father and is more of a loner than someone with a large group of friends.

We thought she was asleep so thought it was 'safe'. After going to the toilet which was initially her reason for waking she went to get a glass of what and I went down to apologise to her and asked if she wanted to talk about anything to which she said no and went back to bed.

She's found it hard me having a boyfriend as it has just been the two of us all her life.

I have decided that I'm going to limit DP coming to my house to every other week to ensure there's just DD and me time.

But still after tonight I feel awful that I may have really done some damage to her mentally.

Pretty sure I've seen this exact post a matter of weeks ago.

It's wrong for your child to hear you. You should have been more careful.

Sorry, I’m going to need a bit more than “hmm” emoji. What’s your take? Smile

Surely the normal response to hearing your parent having sex is to put your fucking headphones in and if you are brave enough tell them the next day, or text them the next day.

We have two teenage sons and if they banged on the wall I would think it was incredibly rude. Neighbours are totally different, if you can hear them through the wall they must be loud Grin

Sex is natural, it was between two consenting adults, she must know you have sex.

Would you feel that way if you heard your own Sons having sex?

Totally selfish opinion just because OP is the adult it does not mean she should be less respectful towards her daughter.

As a parent you have no right to expose your child to sex weather they know sex or not. Blush

If my child banged on the wall I would be mortified!!!
