Parents and Sex

Parents and Sex

One word: Busy! It seems to be a way of life in our culture. Parents who feel pulled in many directions often wonder how on earth they could ever make time or find energy to have an intimate life while raising kids. Yet we know the best way to give kids a happy childhood is not to spend money on them, send them to sports camps, or take them on expensive vacations. The most important gift we can give our kids is a happy home life, with parents who love each other. This doesn’t mean parents need to pressure themselves to have sex more often, along with all the other demands in their lives; but staying connected, feeling a sense of sexual comfort and enjoyment with each other is important to most couples.
