Quickies

Definitely my girl too. I tried waking her up in the middle of the night and got the shit smacked out of me and told to knock it off and go to sleep.

 

I do believe, Sir, that this one takes the cake. It has potential until the belly ache and sugar high kicks in.

 

I leave at 4 am, she takes the kid to daycare at 730 and we meet at home exhausted around 5, cook dinner and then the fight begins to get Maze to fall to sleep. I am looking foward to the first week of July, we both have 10 days off. R&R.

 

So how quick does a quickie have to be to be considered a quickie? Once we get into it, I always want to keep going and enjoy it.

 

First great thread which could turn epic

Done that. Interesting to say the least. Looking back it was stupid but at the time I was like "fuck ya, climb on".

Definitely American Pie. He was reading the book telling him how to go down on her. Fuck what was his name.....

 

I say 15 min or less

 

Wham.
Bam.
Thank You Ma'am.

Sometimes all you get is a few minutes.

In the morning, one of us will end up reaching under the covers and playing with the other. I can sure wake up to a hand on my pecker and she dosen't seem to mind waking up to me playing with her kitty. I keep it light, don't want to just barge in while she's in the middle of sleeping...wake her up by starting a fire.

 

Get a lock on your door....?

Kid will knock all it wants, just say go away your changing lol

 

OK, you have other problems besides opportunity here. If your four year old is still having screaming temper tantrums toddler style to get what she wants - you have an ongoing problem that needs addressing.

A four year old, while needing and deserving an appropriate amount of parental attention, is old enough to have the maturity to be able to wait a few minutes to get attention while mom or dad is "busy."

You *should* be able to lock the door (parent's rooms should have a lock) and say calmly but firmly "Mom and Dad are busy. We'll be out in a few minutes and take care of you then." and have that work for most cases short of "but the stove's on fire!" or "but there's someone at the front door!"

I wouldn't say that if your child was 18 months or two years old. But four is definitely old enough for this.

It will take consistent work on your part to solve this - and the last time you want to be addressing the issue is when you're in the moment of passion.

There's never one key to anything right? But consistently enforced discipline and expectations are the best place to start here. I can recommend a short parenting book called "1-2-3 Magic" available here:

I've got three kids, and know of what I speak.

 

^^^^^this will work everytime.lol

my 2 year old loves spongebob. so we take her to her room turn on spongebob on the dvr and she usually sits glued to the tv. oh and spongebob is the only cartoon i know of that only has 1 commercial break so you get about 13 mins alone

 

Tell them to clean their rooms. Like most kids, they'll delay at that, hiding out of your sight in the process, long enough for you to get much more than just a quickie.

Hey, it worked on us. Think back to how many times your parents told you to clean your room. Guess what they were doing during that.

I will quote Chris Rock from his comedy special.
-When you first enter relationship... you eat then you fcuck... you eat then you fcuck. And the deeper you get into relationship you do a lot more eating and a lot less fcucking.

Your problem is not unique to you. People all over the world... all 7 billion of them have same exact issue. Intimacy in parents drops off like a roadrunner from a cliff. You get about 12 years worth of parent commitment that does require one or both of you to be with that child. In this country... especially there is a silly law that says any child under age of X must be accompanied by a person who is over age of Y at all times. Err... what happened to just leaving your kids by themselves? What is the worst that can happen? Turn off the oven, lock the doors and generally proof your house and your child... will be generally safe. Yes there may be some tears involved but as important as it is to be with the child... 15 minutes without a parent never hurt anyone.

I do not have children but I helped raise two of my sisters so my folks had plenty of alone time. Which brings me to the point: Get a babysitter. You do not need to hire a permanent person... maybe a person for an hour or so. There is a family in my subdevelopment that does just that. There is a lady that walks their kiddo (who is ironically also 4) .

As pointed out by others... intimacy is a MUST in a healthy couple relationship. You should engage in quickies, longies and very longies to maintain your relationship healthy and active as they call it.

 

Some kids require more than TV to keep their attention. Coloring books, video games, puzzles, playdoh, legos, etc. The tantrums need to be addressed now before they develop into a larger issue later down the road. The easiest and yet hardest way is to ignore the tantrums when they are not for something important. Eventually he will tire of his tantrum, and after a few times he will realize it no longer gets him his way. Also try to reduce or completely cut off your kids from soda. Caffeine takes 12 hours to be fully burnt off. If your kid drinks a 12 oz soda with 34mg, 6 hours later he will still have 17mg in him.

 

meet at home for lunch

 

I have the same issue with my son who is almost 4 and I work 70 miles from home. My wife says to wake her up anytime, but when I do she's not to happy about it. To make it worse our son still sleeps with us. The best thing that happened for us is I now get to work from home 2 days a week so my wife comes home and we have a "nooner".

 

Kid in parents bed is a no no! My wife has tried to get ours to sleep in our bed a few times and I said "NO WAY"! I am not about to start that bad habbit. she says "its just this one time..." every habbit starts with "just once"

Good luck, bud. Get that kid in his own bed and everyone will be happier. Your boy wont be happy at first but he will get over it.

 

I'm right there with ya man, June 29th!!

 

may god be with your children

 

It is easy to bring the kid to bed with you just to get some sleep for yourself, but it's bad in the long run. She has her own queen size bed, so come bedtime, my wife lays with her for a few min (or until she, wife, falls to sleep) and comes to bed with me after awhile.
