JAKARTA - Many parents choose to sleep in the same room, even one bed, with their baby. The risk is that the schedule for making out must be well planned.

However, there is always a sense of trepidation in case the child wakes up and sees his parents 'play'. Don't worry. Almost all experts believe that there is no danger to the baby if he accidentally sees his mother and father in action in bed. Rest assured, the child will not remember the scene that happened in front of his eyes even once.

The situation is more complicated if you share a room with a toddler. But, in general, toddlers 'don't care' if he suddenly wakes up and catches his mama and papa having sex. He just needed to know that he wasn't alone in the room, and he'd be fast asleep again.

Even so, there are also children who are afraid or worried because they think something has happened to their parents. So, if this happens, be prepared to explain that mom and dad are just playing adult games, and children don't need to be afraid.

Ideally, according to Ian Kerner, Ph.D., sex therapist, launches Parenting, Friday, October 10, mom and dad have 'a little space' to do husband-wife activities. You might be able to work around this by placing some kind of partition in the corner of the room that if you were behind it, the little one in the bed wouldn't be able to see you.
