My daughter will become 2 years old in the coming march. She is sleeping with us in the same bed from the day she was born.I tried to put her in the Crib many times, but she will cry and atlast she will be with us. We don't have anyone to babysit for us, so she will always be with us whatever we do. Now she is used to watch us having sex. Also she used to watch TV with us, in which many of the films will show bad stuffs. Altogether now she will approch us making weird noises, being completely naked as if she's having sexual desires (just like how an adult will do). She is doing this to both me and my husband. Now only I realized that what we have done is wrong. Till now I didn't recognize that she will notice all our activities until she is 2. What can I do to make her understand that she is a baby and shouldn't do all those stuffs. I'm really scared that due to our carelessness she is being spoiled at this vary small age. We really need help on this.

At two she should be in a crib or even a twin bed with gates. I won't even comment on the sex part because I'm still up in the air on the trolling potential here.

Do not have sex in the same room even she seems to be asleep

you need to start weaning her from sleeping in the bed with you. You can start by putting her in a crib in the same room. If she cries, ignore her. Eventually it'll get to the point where she sleeps in her own room.

did you think she'd still be sleeping with you when she was 5? 6? 10? 15? 18?

as for the rest; she's just mimicking. She has no sexual feelings or expression at that age. She's just doing what she sees her parents doing. She'll stop over time. Once she no longer observes the behavior in you. She has no idea what she's doing means anything. She probably won't even remember it in a few years.

the naked part is completely normal. Toddlers like to be naked. As soon as the figure out how to take off their clothes, they do so. She'll grow out of it.

I would say children should never "watch" anyone having sex. Get this child into her own bed. There are a lot of parenting experts who have written on how to establish a child's own bedtime ritual out of the parent's bed - until you do, you need to go without. And as for the television, sorry - what you're doing is really a disservice to your child and is immature and ridiculous on your part. If the child is there, you don't watch adult programming.

Having nobody to babysit is no excuse. Put the child in bed at a reasonable time (preschool? 8 pm) then you can have some time as adults to watch what you wish (turn it off if she gets up and comes in the room) then keep your intimacy private in your own room, door closed and locked.

So far your parenting is, at best, ignorant.

Ignorant of the fact that allowing a 2 year old to watch you have sex, is okay. Ignorant in the fact that its okay for a 2 year old to watch adult movies, or 'bad stuffs' as you say, which probably involves sex, drugs, violence, blood, guts, etc...

You are ignorant in not realizing that the consequences of your actions have a direct impact on the development of your child.

You are ignorant in not realizing until recently, after the fact, that your actions were inappropriate, immature, and severely lacking in judgment.

Your question: "till what age can an infant watch their parents having sex"... is it never should have happened in the first place, and when you noticed some related behaviour, in my opinion, it should have stopped right then and there.

Also my opinion is that the two of you should invest in some parenting books, or loan some from the library, or do some research online on give you guidelines and advice on how to raise a child so they aren't on a psychiatrists couch as adults.

You are a ridiculous!! Are you kidding me? I'm 23 and I have a 3 year old and It would never even cross my mind to have my daughter watch us have sex... It makes me sick even thinking about it even when she was a newborn! It disgusting that you could have sex with you daughter watching! I highly question your parenting skill or lack there of! And don't give me the "now you know what you did is wrong" Because if you didn't feel horrible that you daughter saw you having sex there is something wrong with you! And I know you a crappy parent to let her watch adult porno and bad stuff! From what you have said I sounds like cps needs to look into what you are doing! What is wrong with parents these days?? You are disgusting!!
