Is it obvious to parents that their daughter/son is having sex with their partner?

Question

Like I'm not sure whether there's any point in me trying to hide it anymore

Parents know a lot more about what their kids are doing than the kids think. That includes sex. That's a general statement, so not all parents will know if their kids are having sex. Then of course there are some parents who deceive themselves and don't want to face reality.

In general though, parents know a LOT more than kids think.

Yes, they can read your mind. They know you’re thinking you’re thinking you got away with something but they don’t want you to know that they know so they try to hide it from you so you don’t know that they know and that’s all I have to say about that.

They definitely know. They were your age once. My mom was aware I was sexually active when I was in highschool. She straight up asked me "are you being safe?" I told her I was and that was pretty much that lol.

Most likely. My mom just told me to “be responsible, you’re an adult now but still too young to have kids” out of the blue back when I had my first boyfriend lmao

Not if the kid is good at hiding it but some parents find out and some of them dont care.

My parents knew when I started fooling around (handjobs, bjs and yes sex.) They always told me to use good judgement and to use a condom every time. Why hide it... a lot of teens are having sex or oral etc. How is the sex life with your boyfriend?

Yes.

Parents will know, unless they're really innocent. I think it's quite expected when you have a partner, and if you're always with him.

The guy is a head taller, nice. Yes they likely know if they allow their daughter/son have a relationship.

Obvious? Not always. But signs. And probably not always easy to hide.

Possibly - but not always. My parents never new - they definitely didn't know I was a lesbian.

UnknownPuppet · Answer

It is obvious don't worry about that. They had been in your age first. They know 😉

Paige90 · Answer

I think 99% of all girls and boys that are dating each other in high school have sex. It's normal.

Let's hope youths are practicing safe sex cause there are a lot of diseases out there from ones who take chances to have sex

Under their roof it's harder verging impossible but away from home is easier I had relationships but never bought my partner's to my place so they never knew
