I really want ways to destress and reconnect with my partner but did not find anything relatable at all in the ParentMap article.

I think telling your 8 year old you’re having sex is SUPER weird, but that’s just me. I mean I get that only doing it when kids are not home or asleep might not be realistic these days, but I feel like you can just turn on a movie and lock your bedroom door, you don’t need to have a conversation with them about what you’re doing!
The only idea I have about de-stressing and reconnecting is leaving the kids with the grandparents and taking a vacation, and we’re doing that ASAP after we get the vaccine.

I don’t think it’s just you. It’s totally weird and inappropriate and for many people would be a mood-killer.
