To ask my parents if they were having sex, and if so request that they don't?

[Cubee]

:D

I am in the bizarre situation of being temporarily trapped at my parent's house. I have a badly broken leg and am bed bound and drugged to the max.

They are doing a stellar job taking care of me and my young children (I'm a single parent, kids under 5). So awkward as this arrangement initially felt, it is working out nicely. I think they have been ace, and really appreciate them.

However...

Part of the arrangement is that my 1 yr old is sharing their room rather than mine. Like I say, they are ace. I get to sleep alone for the first time ever. Though clearly it is not that fun,what with the pain and all.

Last night I awoke to what appeared to be the sound of my parents. .. ahem... doing the deed. Quietly mind. Think squeaking mattress rather than whoops of ecstasy. I briefly thought "Ffs, go to sleep! " and then suddenly remembered the baby was in there too.

So I rang my little bell.

No change. Squeaking continued. Possible moans.

So I picked up the box of tissues by my bed and hurled them across the hallway. I was hoping to hit their door. I missed. Instead the cats sprung to action and began that horrendous sprinting about the house like a herd of elephants lark cats only seem to do at night. And frankly that is terrifying when you are stuck in bed with a broken leg jutting out invitingly like a cat sized springboard. So I lay still in the hope that cats wouldn't notice me. Luckily the tissues seemed to keep them occupied.

Anyway I must have fallen asleep then. Now, I don't know for sure what they were up. I am on some pretty heavy meds for a start. ;)

AIBU to ask my parents if they were shagging with my baby in the room? WIBU to request that they don't?

Hope no one was Playing Tigers last night OP

All quiet last night. There have been a few jokes from them about the inadequacy of my bell though. Hmm.

Does that mean they heard it and carried on regardless?

No... it means your mum is 100% on here

HI MRS CUBEE SNR WAVES

Lordy...they knew you could hear them but they carried on regardless?

I don't know whether to admire them or reach for the brain bleach

God, if I waited until the kids were out the house to have shag as someone mentioned on here I'd never get any!! My kids are 1 and 3 so got a while yet until they're old enough to wonder out and about on their own.

Neverletgojack: Noooooooooo. Oh God. What if she is? No. She won't be.

Helloooo CubeeMum, you dirty devil.

Sounds as if they were brazening it out, Cubee! Looks as though you're in for a sleepless convalescence..

They probably thought you wanted something, but thought you were being inconsiderate and decided to wait to see if you'd keep ringing it.

Or she's in here, yes (my first thought).

You need one of these.

Sadly your bell wasn't a deterrent.
Maybe it was quite the opposite and was offering them some rhythmic background music

I'd ask the doctor to step up the drugs and possibly add some sleeping pills. (and ask him to cancel your Dad's prescription for Viagra.)

You need a klaxon.

In fact we need a coloured klaxon alert for 'they fuck you up' threads.

Better, for all we know the dad here could be anything between 40 and 50. He may not need Viagra at all. :)

Mine are in their 70s and still going at it (less now that he has prostate problems - apparently - TMI from my mother)
