Would you feel embarrassed or shocked? Would you give them the talk or never speak of it ever? Would you try to make them feel less embarrassed and would you knock next time? And how would you address the issue with them?
I have had guy friends who's mother's walked in on them by accident and let's just say their mothers were either in disbelief, devastated, or humiliated.
Reading your last sentence, that's very sad. Masturbating is a normal part of a healthy life. I know there are a lot of people who disagree with me on that.
I would not feel embarrassed or shocked. I'd say "excuse me" and leave and let them finish. If we spoke about it again, I'd only mention that it's best to lock a door or know you'll have privacy. It's not something to be awkward about or make a big deal.
The other thing is, though, that by the time they're at an age to want to masturbate, the conversation has been had. It's not a mystery.
Always lock doors and always knock. Very good answers
Thank you and yeah! :) In our house, you can lock your door until right before you go to sleep. Then, in case of fire, doors have to be unlocked.
Thank you for MHO!
I'm sure they would feel very embarrassed so I would apologize while quickly leaving the room and closing the door. When they emerge I would apologize again and tell them they have nothing to feel embarrassed about as everyone masturbates. I would reassure them that I will knock before entering their room going forward.
That's a very sweet answer
Thank you. 😊
You're welcome ☺️

How would this happen? Did they forget to close a door? Or did I forget to knock? I would just say sorry and forget about it.
Just ignore it
Walk right back out of the room and say nothing. They don't need it to get more awkward
Act like I didn't see it.
I would politely, and quietly, turn around and walk the other way.
What would "the talk" be? I masturbated when young, and still do... occasionally. Nothing wrong with it.
I wouldn't say anything , he probably knows what he doing
If I had kids, it would depend upon how old exactly. A couple of 18-year-olds going at it would be less disturbing than if they were 13, for example, not to mention the potential criminal liability for me.
I'd apologise for interrupting and leave,,,
Well if I had something important to say, I would try to act like I didn’t notice, say sorry for coming in without warning, and say what I had to say.
If it wasn’t something important, I would say “sorry, didn’t know you were napping” and walk out.
Masturbation is completely healthy. It lets teens explore what they like and dislike both through the physical part and the fantasy part, and there are multiple health benefits associated with masturbation. Denying that lust exists is stupid, because we need it to reproduce. The only people who say otherwise and regard it as something to punish are those with their heads too far up their rears about religion.
In any case, I should clarify that I’m answering from a hypothetical stance, because I don’t have any kids. However, when I do, I would like to think I would be the type of parent and respectful human being who knows how to knock before entering a bedroom.
Love it
