My 8 year old and 9 year old found my sex toys.?

They want to know why I have these toys. I don't think it's ay of their business. What do you think? Has this happened to you before? What dd you do?

my x wife had the same thing happen to her.
she told the kids that sometimes adults do things that are not for children to know about until they are older and that they are private and it does not mean that there is anything wrong with that, but we just keep these things to our selves.
that seemed to work for her.
hope i have been some help

At 8 and 9, do they really even understand what they're for? If they do, then there's no reason for them to be asking, and your answer should be "Because sometimes adults use them to feel good." and leave it at that.

If they don't know, then you can sit them down and educate them in a positive, informative manner. . . and try to keep the whole link to you out of the picture and talk about it objectively.

It isn't their business that you use sex toys, but they shouldn't be punished for your embarrassment- they're naturally curious and you have an obligation to educate them in a calm, rational way (which, I know, is easier said than done).

Hope that helps.

firstly, why did you even let them find your sex toys? secondly, i don't know what sex toys are but they sound pretty gross to me. dump them if you don't need it. your kids are way too young to be exposed to all this
